So the shade is evergreen/pine trees?, but in winter it never sees sun.
Is there decent air circulation there?
Al way shady spots can have problems with mold and algae growth.
You'll have to think hard as to whether the summer shade is worth more than the winter sun. It can be hard t keep chicken healthy if it gets really hot where you are.

Where in this world are you located?
Climate, and time of year, is almost always a factor.
Please add your general geographical location to your profile.
It's easy to do, (laptop version shown), then it's always there!
