Hate to hear about everyone having trouble with the heat. I know 2x in the past month I had things
to do around here and at my daughters place and I ended up dehydrating. I thought I was drinking plenty
of water and gatorade but evidently not.(Had drank enough I thought my bladder would burst). I didn't know
it until my dad was having some heat related problems a few years back and our Dr. told him this, "For every
bottle of Gatorade or Powerade that a person drinks,you need to drink that much water." Don't depend on the
Gatorade or Powerade alone.
The last few days here hasn't been bad at all. We have been able to work on some pens all during the day.
My chickens finall will come out of the coops and runs and free range for as long as I let them. Before this week
it was so hot outside, that it was actually cooler for them to stay in the pens. I would let them out and before
long they would be panting. Put them back up and after a few minutes they would be fine.
As Twiley said all of us really need to be cautious. The heat will catch uo to you before you realize it a lot of times.
to his family!! That's one of the reason why we try not to get out there and do anything during this heat!!
