I have plenty of shade. Planning to put a fan in the coop and give the girls lots of cold water and some frozen fruit. Other than those things what is the best thing to do for them when it is really hot. I notice that during they day they are still really active. They are still eating plenty and drinking a lot. But tonight when I went out to turn out the lights and close the coop up for the the night I noticed that a lot of them had their mouths open. It is really hot here but it is not so bad at night mid 70s which I think is not too bad. But during the day I am concerned as we are going into triple digit heat indexes. Does anyone use a mister and how does that seem to work during the day?
