Hello, it is the summer and in my state the temperature can get up to 100 degree F. I have notice my chicken beginning to pant and spreading their wings away from their bodies even at night. Are there ways that I can help my chicken beat the summer heat?
Also I have put a homemade no crow collar on my rooster, it is working quite well, but he does seem a little bit mad with me about it, he doesn't let me pet him anymore and doesn't come to me whenever I go inside the coop like he usually did. Another problem, it is bad if I don't let my chicken free range enough, my mum has a vegetable garden( lettuces, cilantro, tomatoes, water spinach, ect...) and my sister has a area where she doesn't want anyone stepping into it, whenever the chickens come out they will just go in and peck at the vegetables, we don't really have time to just sit there and watch them everyday just to make sure they don't go in those areas.( I do let them come down to their run everyday of course.)
