[QUOTE="Kathie in Thorp, post: 1271453, member: 16769"] Willows are in the pasture for shade; big barn for shade, too. Usually, "breeze" is not an issue here, but it's not a cool breeze. We can bring them up close to the barn, and pens adjacent to cover in the barn -- and the chute is nearby, if we need it. I think I'm just gonna move the whole bunch to a smaller pasture/easier to watch, where they can get shade either side of the barn and access on either biggest side. Can still split pairs off into shelter with some room to stretch. At least through the next week's hot spell. My concern is for the newborns, who know -0- about a bucket of water. [/QUOTE]
