How big is your coop and how much ventilation does it provide?Please, post a picture of your set up.

And feeding them some scrambled eggs as a treat inside the coop will help to get them used to their bedtime snack inside, so they will be waiting for it in the coop after a few days already.

In my coops for instance, I have installed "summer doors", a wooden frame covered in hardware cloth to allow for better ventilation during the hot months.
I have ventilation, lights, heater, perches, screen windows and door and they get an egg every morning. They just love it more outside than inside.
