Oh yeah its still a work in progress by the way. There pop hole will be to the left of that screen door about 3 ft. just FYI
Here's a picture of ours....
Our coop is 4 by 8; smaller than yours. We built the roosts, poop boards and ladder along both sides of the "short"side of the coop.

Here's ours. We just cut some roughly 4" diameter trees off of our property. The chickens LOVE them! The poop board is just some leftover T1-11 siding we had from another project. We placed a couple of 2x4s under it for bracing, and it just slides off. Our coop is 8x8 as well.

Wow. That is a good looking coop!
Nice and clean too (I'm a big fan of clean coops).

Crowing
We have one along the left wall, and one in the back in front of the window, and another just in front of the nest boxes on the right.
Our chicks are still teenagers so they don't use the roosts much yet (they still huddle on the floor).
However, two of our Australorps were sleeping on the roost the first night in the coop.
