So I figured out what happened to my pullet. I've been brainstorming what I did differently in the past few weeks to cause a heat related death. I've been raising poultry for almost five years, and this has never happened. But I figured out what I did wrong! Last week I bought new waterers for the birds. The nice 3.5 gallon hanging ones from Tractor Supply. Before, I was sawing off the bottoms of 20 gallon cow protein tubs, since we go through a lot of them, and using those as waterers. I didn't like them though because the birds will stand in them to drink and therefore dirty the water, so I would have to dump and clean them frequently. Well DUH! They were also standing in them to cool off! Birds lose heat through their feet and heads. I had spoiled my birds, and by removing the old waterers without warning, just as it was getting even hotter, I set them up for failure since they weren't acclimating correctly. So I set out the old waterers again for them to use as a means to cool off, and kept the new waterers so they would always have fresh, clean water. As soon as I set down the tubs they all ran to them and stood there.
ill keep it going too now thanks. 
oh my gosh! Too cute! I love chicken shadows 
500 cars of drunkards that showed me the South ain't no nicer than those northerners. 2nd arrest in a month I am a witness too and have to appear to give a deposition. Really? Very disappointed in baton rouge public that was out last night. Although I DID learn a few new insults I had never heard 
those caused the most fireworks
