    Coop in full sun, heat issues

    Hi there, total chicken newb here. So last year I built my coop and run, one of those prefab things. Only issue is I built them in full sun like a dummy. :barnieThe run is partially covered so it has shade, and stays a good temperature. But my issue is how hot the coop gets. A few days ago it...
