make sure that they have shade.
If you don't have natural shade, use bungies and a tarp with gromets over their run -- or get some shade cloth. Shade can lower the temperature 10-degrees. If you don't have anything else, but you have a patio umbrella open it so that they have shade.
If they are on grass or sand, you could also hose the grass or sand a little. Mine sometimes scratch the grass and flop on it like a deflated balloon, or as other people have said -- they look like dead chickens sprawled out.
Other members on other topics have suggested wading pools, and cool dust baths.
Really make sure that they are not in the sun....solar power is huge (depending on where you are)
I keep a thermometer in my run too -- so that I know how hot it is.
Think cool thoughts.
