[QUOTE="VCC, post: 770379, member: 6399"] Haul them at night, put shavings in the trailer, about 6-8 inches deep, and soak them down real well, the air flow will help the water evaperate and cool the air around them (like a swamp cooler) Misters with air flow will do the same thing. I know some one who had to haul pigs to state fair in the heat, he put 50 pound blocks of ice in the trailer to help keep them cool along with the soaked shavings. Pigs licked the ice blocks along the way. [/QUOTE]
