How do you keep your chickens cool in hot, humid weather?

I'm glad I found this thread! I've learned about a lot of things I can do to help keep ours cooled off during the day. It's been 106 here in Arkansas until it rained last night

I have seen very small personal fans in Walmart for $7 you could mount that in the gable section of your coop. They are only about 6" in diameter. I have a little fan mounted to my gable that blowns into the coop and I let it run 24 hrs.

I have two fans, one at each end of the run and a mister that I run during the hottest part of the day.
