An extractor fan, a chinchilla block, a flowerpot saucer filled with cold water, and in really hot weather frozen bottles.
 
mine have fans going and tiles we have taken the windows out too
also have ice packs in the freezer on standby ;)
 
Cold granite tiles,wet towels and big bowls of water with ice along with frozen bottles x
 
A wire mesh door, windows that open,and lots of shade in their run with slabs so its nice and cool.

I have one shed that gets full sun from 1pm right through to late evening, and on days like today I put a huge parasol over the run too for extra shade.
 
Thank you very much!

Sounds like I am doing the same as everyone else - just wondered if anyone had any ingenious ideas that I had missed!!

They seem to be so hot this time of year - Dobbin wont lay in the cool run though he stays in the very hot shed!

Thanks

Marble blocks that have been in the freezer with a towel over it.
