Trying to protect my 4 month old babies From the 115 degree heat.
I have set up their 6' x12' run under a shade tree, covered with breathable shade cloth, a fan near their perch, and a misting system too keep it cool.
This worked well until the ants moved in (all of 24 hours) Black ants in Phoenix are close to fire ants in the pain of their bite.
Now the girls are staying and their coop, and panting. I'm not sure if it's the moisture or the ants or both.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated![Folded hands :pray: 🙏](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f64f.png)
