Hello neighbor! We live in Gilbert and recently adopted 5 quail that needed a home. I was planning on trying a fan and frozen water bottles to keep them cool. Did you make your misting system off your drip irrigation system?
Hey there No, I actually bought a cheap system from Lowe's that I'll turn on manually as needed once it's hotter. For now I'm not planning to use a fan but that can change depending on how things go. I did put a gallon freezer bag of frozen water in their enclosure at lunch time today so they can gather around if needed, but IgorsMistress here on the boards lives in the area and suggested that a few saucers of water and perhaps a spot wetted good in the morning that'll be cool and damp by afternoon works good for her. I think I'll do that instead of the frozen bag is it's sort of rigid and takes up a lot of space.
Looking forward to seeing how it goes for you!
