It does not look like 45"x45". It looks smaller. And if the nest boxes take up the majority of the south wall, that's about all they can use the coop for, laying eggs. It's just too small and lacks ventilation.
That is a good point! I use to have 6 nesting boxes for my 16 hens but they only used 3 of them so I took out the ones they didn't use.With only 4, you only need one or 2 nest boxes. Add a small area in the run in which to lay, take the nest boxes out of the coop
They are way better with the cold than with the heat, they are actually fun if your run is predator proof. They dont care for rain or wind, so if you blocked that, they will be fine. Where are you at?
