We live in Phoenix. This summer we bought blocks of ice for our girls. They loved it. We put the baged blocks of ice on the bottom of their shaded chicken coop. Leaving the ice in the bag prevented the coop from getting soggy. My girls at the time had not started laying eggs yet. They were about 4 months old. They would all just lay on the ice or next to it. Now they are laying eggs so next year I don't know if this will affect their egg laying? But I would rather have cool happy girls than eggs.
