Do I need to stay a minimum number of days in the Schengen country my visa is for?

The rules are that you should apply to the country where:

  1. You will be spending the majority of your time OR
  2. The country where the majority of your activity for which you are applying will take place.

If you are spending an equal amount of time in all countries, then you should apply to the first country that you will enter the Schengen zone in.

From my personal experience - some airlines do not allow you to board except to the destination of your Schengen visa country especially if this is the first time you are traveling on that visa.

There is no "minimum" amount of time, but the maximum that you can spend in the entire Schengen zone depends on the kind of visa you receive.
