I do hope your garden will survive the extreme heat. That is one of the things I don't miss about living in Western Australia, the extreme heat and how the gardens just shrivel up before your eyes. It's not a matter of how much you water, it's the air temperature as well. You chooks should be fine if you go down and water their pen to make some damp spots for them to sit in and spray them with some water a couple of times during the day. I did that with with my chooks on really hot days, they loved it. Good luck with it all and I hope you have lots of cooling drinks in your fridge.<br />Anne xx**Anne**https://www.blogger.com/profile/05595796965034742923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517767944164746890.post-79766809349711022132014-01-12T13:13:39.621+10:302014-01-12T13:13:39.621+10:30Your finds are all so fantastic!
