We can get pretty hot in the summer here too....plus the humidity is killer. It's not uncommon to have days over 100F & nights still in the high 80's to low 90's. What makes it hard to breath & move around is the humidity that makes the air so thick. Shade & cool water are the best thing for this. Plus, don't expect them to be up & running all over the place. They are going to be hot & lazy just like we are.
You are exactly right about the humidity. We can handle the heat but the humidity just sucks the energy out of you. We live near a lake so it's a perfect storm (ha) situation when the heat gets in the high 90's and up into the 100's. Lots of shade though so that helps. I'm already clearing room in the freezer for cartons of ice to put in their waterers.
