    Ask Lester and Jami, I sent them two misters for their horses last year. They never used them. Maybe they still have them. Your chickens are so blessed to have you caring about them in the horrid heat. ❤😊

      I thought they used the misters over where the watering station was last year. They had one there and a mister to the horses where Waylon is now.

    We used these for many years on the patio in the evenings. My son hangs out in his garage and strung some across the top of his door and used it in the summer to hang out in. They are supposed to reduce the heat by 20°. We have also used them along the fence line in the backyard for my son's outside dogs to stay cool. I have mentioned these many times to Lester for his animals and he never did do it. It evaporates pretty quickly so it doesn't cause standing water underneath.

      I sent them two I believe it was last Summer when they had the Harsh heat spell. They bought the big misting fans and never used them. 😢

    Hi Buddy and Stephanie
    I love watching you both on your videos, the back and forth between you is just beautiful to watch. I had to laugh when Buddy kept putting that box in front of your face Stephanie then you said you’d read the instructions. Every man’s worst nightmare, I don’t think I’ve met a man yet that reads instructions 😂. Seriously your chickens are going to love their new misting system ❤️

    Wonderful idea to set up that mister for your chickens. I've read they can lower the temperature under them by 20-30°, that's why I ordered on yesterday for my porch. 😂 I am so excited to receive and set it up. I say go ahead and do your porch too, why the heck not? ❤💧

    I bet ya'll have the happiest chickens on Morrow Hill. Everyone else's chickens are gonna be jealous. I had one of those misters for my horse a few years ago and she'd use it occasionally but wouldn't stay under it long. She'd rather be grazing in the pasture so we took it down. Now we just hose her down. My donkey hates water 😂. Misters feel wonderful and I'm sure your chickens are gonna love it.

    Hi guys! Both of my married kids live in Phoenix, AZ and most businesses have misters. My daughter's school where she teaches have them too! They come on every day at 1 pm. Most restaurants have them going from noon to dark. They truly cool the air down from 10 to 20 degrees. Way to go Denmans!

    Hi Stephanie and Buddy. Just a suggestion. You can put an inline water filter that hooks up to your hose. Like you use on an RV. The mister nozzles clog up easily, and it would help with the mineral buildup.
