Possible Guinea Eggs in "Quail" Batch?

i have 2 large coops and the way i see it i need another one. i have a 12 by 16 with a loft, no run that houses 10 guinea , 3 lg. hens and a polish roo. they all free range. the other coop i made is 8 by 20 then turns into another 8 by 16 . its in a l shape and the coop part is 8 by 12 . so how am i gonna squeeze 65 chickens in there? the new tolbunt i have is BIG ! where does he go?
an L shape
 
I only have one coop for 20+ chickens, and all five of the roos live together. It's a mess! I definitely need a new coop.

how big is your coop? i have about 7 roos in mine and they are fine but if i add the polish with him being so much bigger im gonna have to keep a close eye. i prefer a new coop.
 
I converted an old tool shed into their coop. The shed is about 8x8x10, and the run is 10x10. The big ones are able to fly out, so only the youngsters and the bantams are the only ones in it all day. Still, it would be nice to have some more room for them to lay their eggs and sleep.

wish i could find something like that. im getting to old to keep building this stuff and the amish i live by charge too much. think i want something for my new tolbunt and a few hens but i need it close to the other for elect. in winter
 
The shed is attached to the house, so it has electricity. I've never plugged anything up in there though, I'm too paranoid about coop fires!
 
It doesn't get too cold here. It usually stays just above 30. I might have to get a defroster this year, though. It was already 40 degrees yesterday! Way too early for virginia weather.
