Am I missing anything for my coop plans?

Can you post a pic of this "car port/corn shed structure"?

Here's some tips on the 'height of things'.

I don't much see messes.
So you will use both those structures?
Are both roofs good and rain tight?
What's that on the ground between the two structures...a fallen roof??

I plan to use the left structure as the coop (the roof has no holes or cracks) shed...the middle and other structure as the run. That in the middle us the floor of a metal shed that was broken down after the previous owner vacated. I planned to the use it for a floor in the coop shed after cutting it to size.
The middle will have a roof of hardware cloth and hardware cloth sides.
The right structures roof has small dime sized holes all over the top I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with it. I may just have to replace it. The front of the right structure is where I'll put the door to the fence. I just got some free wood from my husbands boss which means I can push my building schedule up!

Great explanations, thanks!
I'd think twice about using that old floor as a new floor,
that material might be better used elsewhere, if it's even in good shape.
is it wood or metal?
Floors right on the ground can harbor rodents or other critters underneath,
dirt floor might better especially if you want to do a deep litter in the coop.
Water infiltration(any water runoff in that area?) and anti-digging protection(an apron) need to be considered.

Good examples of apron installation, tho I'd not recommend 1/2" HC...go with 14ga 1x2 or 1x1, will hold up much longer and is easier to lay flat.

That’s the new design

Looking good, wish I had made a ground floor coop... I may still do that.

One thing I noticed watching my girls on camera is 12" deep was a little cramped. Sure they used it but a bit deeper is better. They seem to settle down faster in the new deeper roll out nest box.

You're drawing on graph paper, but are you not using the squares to represent a certain measurement so your side and plan views are not matching up?
Each square can equal 1'....or 6"(2 squares per foot).

Start with the plan view/floor plan(what you are calling the 'inside').
Label each side with N,S,E,W or front, back, right, left..
...then draw your elevations(side views) and label them to match the plan view.
Use a pencil, with a good eraser, so you can fix any booboo's.

Sorry, old drafter here.
The only thing worse than no drawing is one that's out of scale.

ETA...maybe the 'front' shows both structures and the space between?
The 'inside' view is the structure on the left of the front view?
The storage space on the 'inside' view is not shown on the left of the front view?
Maybe you just need to add a few things to your views to make it clearer?
Adding doors and pop door to inside view would help.
Those roosts all over may make it hard for a human to move thru the space.
