Advice on this disaster of of shed

The disaster was shown in post one. She started over.

That really wasn't a disaster either, just needed some TLC but the new build is great.

Was funny to open the title 'disaster shed' then see this beauty!
But then I reviewed the beginning of thread,
and remembered your good decision to start anew.

Yes, it had too many issues, and then my husband started making a list of what he wanted to store in that shed. I looked at him, and said "it's all yours, I am building something bigger and better"!

Oh, WOW...I expected to see the sides covered in mesh!

I strongly recommend you get some diagonal braces on those walls.
That metal will not hold up well in strong winds from keeping the building from racking. Get something long enough 2x4min. and try to connect the top of one post down to the bottom of the post next to it on the inside. Two on each wall would be very wise. Here is a picture to give you an idea.

Being in the southwest, our coop has 3 solid walls and one completely open but that we can close off when it's windy or cold. Woods design would be too warm at the end of the day, especially if there's not much of a breeze to move air.

I'm in northern Oz & this is how we have built our coop. It has an east nor'east orientation. Heat is our killer, not the cold. I really only have to close it up if the wind is coming directly from the east with horizontal rain. Otherwise it is deep enough to cope with most things bar the mozzies.
