Nesting Boxes sitting on North/South/East/West?

Yeah, that really doesn't tell me much, aart. Was more interested in ventilation, overcrowding, roosting, square footage of coop, etc. Heck, I'm in SC--it's hot and humid.

Just thought you'd be interested...
....maybe your tag here will get the info you want, and I am curious too.

So @analyticalblonde, how's this coop/run working out?

Hi @imnukensc !

I set up my integrated coop/run with the coop on the east side and the run facing west. I did this so that for only the early part of the day, until about 1 PM, the coop is receiving the sun. Then as the day progresses, the open area of the run gets the setting sun. There is a full, white vinyl covering, kindof dome-shaped, over the entire coop/run and plenty of airflows. I have just today hung a porous liner along the west side of the run because the temps have been so hot and with the sun at its ferocious in the afternoon, I needed to figure a way to help block the sun to keep the run a little cooler.
