Thank you for the suggestion. I added tyvek on the floor at someone’s suggestion as well — idea being to keep it from rotting out too quickly.Fill the bottom with 2ish feet of straw. That will insulate it very well.
You will want to extend the roof over the nest box about 2' to keep snow and rain off of it. Easy to do before you finish. Also put a roof over the run slanting to the rear of the first photo because rain/melting snow will from the coop will go into the run making it muddy.

Leave it open between the rafters both high and low for winter ventilation.
