Hello all,
what do you find are the best breeds as far as heat tolerant egg layers go?
Currently living in California I have a pair of Dutch Banties, and they don't seem to mind the dry heat...but contemplating homesteading in Florida prospectively, with the hellish, humid summers. I did some research, but everything online seems pretty inconclusive...some say Sumatrans, some Leghorns, some say nobody will lay in over 100F heat. Just wondering what your experiences are with
humid heat tolerant birds...
Oh yeah and if they could be good foragers and docile, that would be dreamy
