    Portable AC in the coop?

    That's beautiful! I want to be one of your chickens. Lol! I was told that in Florida misters are a bad idea because they add to the humidity? Is your area of Texas humid and has that been your experience? Our heat index has been very high, but actual temps near 100. This week, we are...

    Portable AC in the coop?

    Thank you. I had tried sprinkling worms in ice. My clb love it but the australorps and Ameracauna won't go near it. And yes - I freeze big 1/2 gallon jugs for their waterers and refill with cool water every couple of hours. It amazing how fast that stuff melts. Next week we are expecting temps...

    Portable AC in the coop?

    aldarita These are some of the coop and run. The entire run is covered and shaded. There are some spots where sun comes through part of the day at certain angles. The run is 240 ft² and the coop is 80 ft². If I am out in the run with someone else they will come out to see what's going on. But as...

    Portable AC in the coop?

    Yes. We had the fan then. And I hadn't seen that suggestion but haven't turned it on. They seem to like the fan inside the coop though.

    Portable AC in the coop?

    I did. And I also put ice bottles in it periodically. They have refused to come out of the coop since we rehomed all the roosters

    Portable AC in the coop?

    I just checked on them again and they seem to be doing fine. For whatever reason, they still refuse to leave their coop. We already had a big fan in the run, but installed a smaller one in the coop this morning. They are obviously hot (panting, etc), but seem ok and the fan seems to be helping -...

    Portable AC in the coop?

    I am already doing these things and they are still struggling - plus we have 7-8 week old chicks that are too big to be in the brooder anymore -12 of them. We run an extension cord for the fan that we have out there. No coop power. This is a floor standing portable that we can run a cable to

    Portable AC in the coop?

    Question #1: Should I be more concerned about the actual temperature or the heat index? The actual high will be below 100 (barely) but indexes in the 110+ for the next 10 days. Question #2: Many people have suggested wetting the run down. However, we live in a very humid climate. Would this...
