k so i have a metal shed that is 5 x 8 x 4 tall.. i think i want to raise it. ill have to make a floor anyways so that will give them more shade as well any ideas how to make it work??

Build a 5 x 8 foot platform (like a table) for the shed to sit on. Built it anywhere from 18 -24 inches tall. If you go to my BYC page and click the link "Kruer Bantam Coop" you'll see a platform I build for my bantam coop, even though it was only 4 x 5...

how about like the one I'm doing ? I'm not done yet but will be soon. I got 10 inch caster wheels, made the size I want 8x8 platform and used 2x4's to hold the caster wheels. Including the caster wheels, it's about 1 foot off the ground. Then made them bottom hardwire panels, so they can use the botom as a run too when it rains or snows.
