I’m in South Central Massachusetts on RI/CT border. Is there a group/thread here to get advice on coop location for our weather here? Thanks!

Oh sorry! Best location on the property as well as direction of coop to protect from weather (summer sun and winter storms). The ideal spot for the proposed coop and run is in a 30’x30’ clearing surrounded by woods (mostly 100’ trees with some smaller trees, brush). The ideal spot puts the coop facing West. Will that be a problem with drafts from the chicken’s door in the winter? Also, the coop will be a 6x6 room within the 10x10 structure). Will 10-12 chickens be warm enough if their 6x6 area is closed off to the rest of the space except for one foot near the ceiling?
