How can I cool my chickens down

[wowmanacat]

I keep lot of water and a under bed tote with three or four inches of water in it for them to wade in. We are now just starting to get some rain here. They are out there now in the rain and loving it.

my chickens love sand and fine dirt to cool off in. they take a dust bath and fling the cool sand and dirt all in their feathers and underneath their wings, multiple water-ers are good and also a wire flooring and clean coop. Wire flooring created ventilation for fresh air to come in hot air to go out. A clean coop because the chicken droppings act like instillation
