It is 85 degrees Fahrenheit here. I'm very, very worried about my 14 week old girls, 4 Buff Orpingtons and one Barred Plymouth Rock. I'm especially worried about Gidget (BPR) because she has partially black/grey feathers. I've tried everything this article from my favorite chicken website suggested except for the fruit smoothie and eggs

I also added a frozen milk jug full of water and they have 4 water sources in their 15'x4' run. They have been dust bathing and drinking under the coop all day. Does anyone have any more ideas?
