Is this material good to use as a reflective for heat on the side of an existing coop?

I have some of this left over from packaging. It's reflecting like a car windshield protector. I want to put it on top of the nesting boxes and the south side of the coop where they lay. The red coop is where they lay

It's worth a shot but I don't think it will work.

Opening up more ventilation and putting up some kind of shade structure would probably do more.

I just opened the door, as it's shady there now. I cracked open the nest box lid. I have a couple of things, but I don't have the help to do it. one thing is the square party tent shade. One windstorm will carry it to the next eastern county.

Oh, and I have a mister going there. But there is about three hours of direct sunlight. Garnet is in there still trying to lay an egg.

I put that stuff up on "ceiling " of coop. But stuff on walls has been eaten/ pecked off all of it. You could literally watch them grow by how high I had to keep cutting it off! The little sparkle poopers!?! I agree my winters are horrible here subzeros etc and they are very resilient. Concentrate on ventilation to remove the humidity they put off in urine/poop and breath. Remember they are wearing down parkas with a those feathers.
