    moldy unfinished food, design flaw?

    Oh cool, I've never seen one of those before. The run and coop are covered, the problem is that I live on an island and mold happens overnight. It's so humid here, I hate it.

I'm really concerned because I live on Guam and it usually reaches over 100 during the day. How can I keep them cool? They're panting outside right now. The coop and run has shade and plenty...
