What do you do for your chickies to beat the heat. Our BAs and SGs (layers) are still in the garage while we get the coop built this week. They have almost 100% shade. However yesterday and today we had a sudden 90°+ heat wave and they we're panting so badly. I added some ice to their water and gave them a little pan of ice to use the cold water as it melted. Much better this morning but it's heating up fast. Some storms will come through and break the heat over the weekend but it looks to be a hot summer and in WI where there's heat, there's humidity and a lot of it.
