I'm newbie and in another post I never really got a answer to part of my question. Here in deep east Texas Heat indexes are already reaching over 100* during the day. Night time temps can stay at 80*. My question is are my 8 week old white leghorns getting too hot in their coop at night? Coop is above ground and Is 3 foot x 8 foot in size. I only have 6 birds. They have a 8 foot x 16 foot run to play in during the day but Should I be worrying about them getting too hot in a coop at night? They seem just fine when I let them out at 7am each day but it is just going to get hotter as summer comes on stronger!!
