We live in North Florida. All of the coop designs I have seen are to help chickens make it through the cold winter. We have, maybe, 7-8 days per year with temps less than 32 degrees. And only at night. What we need is a coop design with more roof and more wire and less wood. Please show me yours!

I used 80% shade cloth for the run on this one. not dark enough on hot days. I'll replace it with metal when the cloth wears out. I use electric fence to keep critters out.

If nest boxes are available inside the coop, but you want to add more, is it necessary that they're accessible from inside?
