I freeze my chickens waterers over night and put ice cubes in it through out the day! they seem to like it! I keep reading that they like to take dustbaths in the mud/wet dirt? is this true? do they not care? wouldn't it stay in their feathers?
it gets about 100 degrees here so, Ours have figured out if I accidentally leave the garage door open, that the concrete is nice and cool to lay on...and then i have to clean up the mess!
