the porch i have it is facing west and i get it close to the west side to get after noon sun but they will be back out as soon as i see a break in the rain. i have my large ones in full direct sun and these im moving are under 2 yo I do have some of my special collection in the porch all the time but they are in a sw window so they are getting a ton of bright lite and some good sun I have to open the vinal windows due to they have a uv protection.
The question how hot in side is it well with out a breeze its hot but i insulated the roof with a reflective barrier and the kick plates with that and spray foam to keep cooler in summer and warmer in winter, if the breeze is there its what ever tem is in the shade outside.
