Please show me your hot weather coops

Pics
So I'm getting this RV in 2 weeks. I've been waiting on it for several months. Any thoughts on how to make it work this summer? It will be perfect this winter, keeping them safe and dry, but summer will be brutal!! I'm hoping the RV will fit in my horse pen, which has a large covered double stall on one side. I may set it up so they can sleep outside in the horse stall in the summer, and the RV in winter.

Just wanted to revive this thread to see if anyone had any new hot weather coops they wanted to share. It's been a few years since the last post, and many years since the thread's inception, and many of the photos are no longer available. So who has a hot weather coop they want to share?

It gets very hot and humid here in the summer, so it’s hit even in the shade. In addition to my coop being under a big oak three, it is situated to catch the cross breeze. Once my girls are panting even at night I add the fan and sometimes a frozen water bottle hung in front of the fan, all at perch level.

I really like it. I lived in NOLA for a while and it gets unbearable there as well. Florida isn't any better lol.
 
fledgling. I wanted to say thank you for everything you do for our country. Iraq may not be the most popular war but your services are greatly appreciated by many of us.

Hear, hear. Thank you SO VERY MUCH for taking care of all of us.
 
Here is our coop. It gets pretty hot here in southern Utah around summer time usually in the 115's so we decided to put it under a tree which has helped a ton!
