After the loss of Sassy I've been keeping check on my girls. Today I found Diller all hot and panting in the nest box, I took her out and stood her in the pan of water in the coop. She cooled down and I got a fan and put inside the coop. My husband said, we have this little swamp cooler we could hook up. I'm like a fan is better than nothing. But, we now have a cooler on the side of the coop for my girls. We'll just run it during the hot hours of the day. It is now a cool 70 degrees in there.
Of course it was after a trip to Home Depot to get some tubing and misc. parts. Now the hose that I have out there is split so it adds water to the evaporative cooler and the other split goes to the mister that is on the inside of the run.
