I will get my husband on that when he gets home from work thank you he's the one who put it together I just want everything best for them.

Sounds good! while he’s at it, he might want to make sure there’s enough roosts for all the chickens up higher than the nesting boxes. Because, when the nesting boxes are higher up, the chickens may use them to roosts instead.

can they really get up I even though I clipped their wings? I just clipped them which is why they stay in their pen now.

Just curious... Did you clip only one side or both?

Excuse me but my birds are free range 100% and I don’t clip my chickens wings. I don’t see the need unless they are getting over the fence, which they don’t.

I never heard of black sunflower seeds. and as far as Chicken scratch goes do I just throw it down on the ground and the they eat it off the ground or do I put it in their food bowl?

You can just throw it on the ground. Also if you are planning on giving your chickens any type of treat you must give them grit in a separate feeder.
