It's always been a challenge with the 4x8 hutch design we have to balance roost space with my ability to get inside should I need to. I finally figured out how I could mount roosts to a single wall and still have them easy to get out of my way.
They're on Stanley folding shelf brackets and I attached some scrap wood to the wall so I wasn't limited to installing them where the studs are. I now have six roosts all running the same direction rather than two running perpendicular. More space for them, easier fly-hop down, and fewer squabbles (hopefully) as the youngsters merge into the flock and are looking for a roosting place. Each roost folds down against the wall independently so I can easily have them out of my way.
