... I’ve had chickens die from excess heat. I’ve never had one have a problem with cold.
so true
I don’t know what you mean by the metal vent stuff, gable vents, roof vents, ridge vents? If it can be blocked by snow, don’t count on it. But when it is open, those do a real good job.
...also true. I was a believer in ridge vents until I looked at them with a foot of snow on them. Worthless.

Do you think you’ll be comfortable in there during the summer?
Also, get on your hands and knees (about chicken height) after they've been in there a while. If the ammonia bothers you, think of what it is doing to their tiny respiratory systems all day.
