Yes, paint the coop. Exposed wood, even treated wood, will deteriorate over time if left exposed to the elements. If heat is your concern, paint it a light color or even white to reflect the heat of the sun.
If you leave it unpainted, you're going to have larger and worse issues down the road: rotting wood to replace, bugs that like to burrow into and live in (maybe even eat) the deteriorating wood, and worse, water retention and MORE rot getting into the framing of the coop. Paint it.............
