That coop is gorgeous!
The only thing I worry about at night if they roost next to wire with openings as small as an inch is raccoons and weasels, they are dastardly. I have *so far* not had problems with them, but I figure it's a matter of time. I don't know if you ever see either in your area. Sleeping on the floor/ground shouldn't hurt them, my Silkies almost always just cuddle together on the floor. My layers took almost a year to start sleeping on roosts.
