It’s COLD!!

There doesn't look to be much room to move the roost bars up much. If you move then up a foot, the birds would have to sleep with their heads sticking out of the roof!

The space above the door opening looks to be at least equal to the height of the door

I live in Idaho and it’s getting into the single digits at night. When I’ve checked on my chickens at night, they are all gathered in the coop, but right In the doorway, which I have been keeping open. I’m worried about frostbite. Should I be closing the door and why the heck are they sleeping in the doorway?!

From looking at the pic above, you could lift the roof off, install some 1" furring strips, then put the roof back on. It will allow better ventilation than that one little vent door.
If to can get a ridge vent from Lowe's, you can just cut an opening along the ridge, and nail the new ridge vent on. Really easy

This is a great idea! Thank you!
