HaHaHa!!!! What I would do for and 80 degree day!!! That would be so nice. It is about 108 here in the beautiful state of Arizona today! In March we hit 100! We had a great high of 118 last year, I wonder what it will be this year!

To the rest of the country... Enjoy your beautiful weather and be grateful you don't live in Arizona!!!

I just turn the lawn sprinkler on. They will go to the wet grass after I move it. Some of my cornish x actually chase the water as it is moving back & forth.
Yes, I have healthy cornish x's. They are 5 1/2 weeks & are not near butcher weight yet. LOL!!!

i lost a 3rd of my cornish roasters due to the heat. all cockerels (or whatever you call a male broiler). 2 on one day, and then 5 or 6 two weeks later. both days it was over 90 and I had a fan blowing on them.
