Good point

I’d be worried they scratch at it enough to break it open, then they’d be exposed to whatever chemical goo is inside there… It’s not worth the risk to me, not when there’s plenty of other options easily available to me ~> Just my friendly Opinion 🌻😸🐥

I love the 90% shade cloths!!! They are fairly inexpensive as well :)

I first rinse them off with the backyard hose, then I scrub them off really good in the house, (10% bleach water) and I have a dedicated section in my deep freezer. I just have it sectioned off to the side with cardboard… Also, they only last for about 3 or 4 weeks; they start to get beat-up and...

I agree! - Plant saucers are awesome for cooling foot baths, especially for my bantams!!

— When I saw this Topic of the Week — Keeping Chickens Cool in the Summer 🌻 I immediately thought of this video clip from last Summer!🌻 … It’s definitely one of my favorites! :) Summertime Cool-Down Activity Treat! — What we used = We added Cherry Tomatoes, Pink Lady Apples(peeled & scored)...

I love these plant saucers as they aren’t too deep for my bantams, just perfect for a cooling foot bath! They LUUUUV them; it’s too cute to see them standing in them to cool off. Another huge hit is the frozen 2liter soda bottles. I just lay them around randomly, as well as place one next to...

Agreed! I experience the same thing here with my birds!!! My Roo has a real love affair with the fans. Whenever he sees me walk out with one he gets all excited and hogs all the air by laying in front of it…the hens hate him for it…Just kidding!! LOL!😉

I started dunking feet and cupping some water up to their breasts, only until they stopped panting or slowed their panting significantly, then I put them back up to roost. We also added a fan that blows up underneath them. I think that’s really the lifesaver. They seem to love that air! They...

Definitely depends on where you live; the humidity here is so dang high that watering things down just “weighs down” the air, making it heavier and even hotter, if that makes any sense. It’s all new to me! — Living in Kentucky now, (with 85% humidity tonight for example), being a Californian...

I’ve done that as well, not at night before bed tho but during the day throughout to get them cooled off. I like you’re idea tho, I’m gonna try that on a extra hot evening

I love providing several shallow feed bowls with cool water for them to play in as well as water things down real good off in a shady corner. I also make sure they have lots of fresh dry peet to dust bath in, off in another corner… I’m able to give them more room/run space too; they get to free...
