How big should I make my coop and run for 4 birds?

I wish I could do two likes. Excellent way to explain it Guppy.

Shade cloth can provide shade and allows air flow. So can a couple wooden saw horses with a piece of plywood screwed on top making a sort of table.

What is shade cloth? Tarps block the breeze which in my hot humid summers is important. I will have a covered roof for the run and coop. Planning on some climbing plants (hops and sun flowers) that will add shade in the summer and die off in the winter to let the sun in the South side but not until next year as too late in the year.

I like the idea of planting hops or something Vining going up the side of my run. Hmmmm. Thanks for the suggestion
