@ LindaB... The weather this winter makes me wonder what summer will be like. lol
Since this last summer was my first summer to have chickens and them walking around panting I would put large bottles (like milk jug) of ice in their drinking water. They seemed to really enjoy that. I found out though it needed to be really large like milk jugs or they melted pretty quick. I'd changed them out twice a day to help keep them cooler. Also I have a tub that is about 3 foot long and 1-1/2 foot wide and I would put a milk jug of ice in there with water to and they would climb over in it and stand. lol I'd just rinse all these milk jugs of water off once they melted and just sit them in the freezer to refreeze. I think I had like 6 jugs going in the freezer. I have an old upright freezer out there that I just use that one shelf for their jugs.Just 110* over there, heck, that's a winter vacation here! 'Course, I'll take our 120* dry heat over 80* with a high humidity any day. I hate humidity.
Which brings up an interesting thought. Everyone always talks about chickens suffering in the cold and the heat, but I don't think I've ever seen anything mentioned on humidity. Is there a specific way you handle things are change things when it gets really bad? Not that I'll ever need it here, but...
Has anyone here ever made kombucha before? I just watched a video

about how to make a scoby for your kombucha. It looks to me, to be the same thing that happens when I add UP ACV to apple juice or processed vinegar. Is it the same thing exactly? Can I use some of the "scoby" from my vinegar operation and put it in some tea to ferment?
