Withdrawing feed birds six hours before peak warm temperatures in the afternoon can lower the risk of heat stress. You can reintroduce the feed after peak temperatures have started to decline. Birds can then feed during night time hours when we expect cooler temperatures to occur.

That’s why you need to feed them in the early morning n evening period so the can make up for that not eaten during the day time.

Proper ventilation and cooling activities will help.

The feed in feeder trough should be turned(rubbed) from time to time. It will encourage the birds to eat more
-
Offer smaller, more frequent meals to encourage feed intake without overwhelming the birds.
