I have three Rhode Island Reds, Three White Orpingtons, and one Black Star Sex Link all 17 weeks old. We keep them in an outdoor-indoor coop in a tin barn. And in the day time we move them away from the barn out under a shade tree in a pen. It has been 100 degrees every day for the past week. They have plenty of water and a little sled that we put water in and they drink and wade in it. And I change the water about every two hours. But they are soo hot. Panting and have their wings limp and are just miserable. Need tips!! How do I keep these girlies cool?!
