I am going away from my girls for 8 days, and on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday it will be 99F and above (Thursday being about 107 and Friday being 113F, but will get back when it is about 104F) My friend is taking care of my birds, and they will be giving cold and frozen treats like watermelon and grapes and fresh water and electrolytes, is there anything else we could do to make the hens cooler? Because some of my birds (My bantams and a couple large fowl) are not great with heat and I need them to survive this. Anything like should we put tubs of water around the yard, putting ice cubes In water, etc? I need ideas!
