Hey all! I'm not sure if I am posting this thread in the right place. If not I'm sorry! Okay all, I live in the high desert, and yesterday it was 103, and one of my girls got heat stroke. Ive had chickens for 5 years now, and have done many things to keep them cool. Fans, misters, sprinklers, spraying down the ground in their pens, etc. Ice bottles, frozen treats.
I was wondering if anyone else had advice. Their cages are shaded or they have sail shades. Thoughts?
We cooled the hen down last night with water and Pedialyte and put her in the utility room in a crate where she could be cool.
