Depending on the weather, we open the coop doors around 8 am and the chickens can go in and out of the coop as they wish. We haven't had any problems yet with them laying the eggs outside. In the winter time our inside pens are roomy enough that we don't have to open the doors to the outside runs unless the weather is fairly nice. The chickens will put themselves to bed and then the door is shut at dark.
