Chickens need lots of space inside and outside for good health. Just as it is with humans, too close in contact can breed disease. Good ventilation in the coop is very important, the air gets fouled with all the breathing, moisture and pooping. Keep things clean...

Chickens are pretty habitual so this cover will probably work and he will forget and sleep where he's supposed to! Although, there are some that are determined to make us pull our hair out. 🤣 Hopefully he doesn't figure out any other escape plans. 😅
Do they have their own coop or are they roosting with older birds? Sometimes chicks become intimidated and won't go into the coop if they are nervous or being bullied. If you keep putting them in the coop at night, they should get the hint soon. 😊
