    70's I could have handled without more worry. But mid to upper 90s??

    Are they going to be alright? I will have their water etc waiting and they will be in the house where it will be cooler. But the heat and humidity is going to make me worry about them more.

    Mine are coming next week too and it will be in the upper 90s here. From what I've read they should be fine. When their in the brooder we set the light so that the temp is around 90 so as long as they have water I wouldn't worry.

    Good luck with your babies!
