Misters! Our chickens love to hang out in the cool mist when it’s hot. We also give them watermelon and frozen peas & corn!

Our chickens love cold watermelon, frozen peas and corn, and misters when it’s hot out. You can get inexpensive misters to hook up to a hose. Our chickens love to hang out right under the mist To keep cool!
