What do you believe would be the best breed of layer hens for the hot (90 + Degrees F) & humid summers here in the south?

We live in North Central Florida so we know about the hot and humid. We have excellent results from our Black Sex Links and our Leghorns. They drop 5 eggs a week per bird straight through the summer. Our New Hampshires and Barred Rocks average 4 eggs a week per bird. Just make sure that they have clean fresh water all day. We change their water 2 to 3 times a day during the summer.
