Transporting Goats in Truck-Hot Weather
#2
Hello and welcome! Can you paint your camper shell white? I've noticed with horse trailers that the color makes an enormous difference to the inside temperature. You could install a couple of vents in the roof that would draw air down through them. They make them for horse trailers (mine has them). I'm also wondering if there's anything you could do with ice blocks that wouldn't be too messy.

We had to take our goats through Utah when it was 105 degrees a couple of summers ago. It was so hot we ended up stopping and letting the goats out of the trailer to stroll around in the shade and get a drink. We set out again later on when the day had cooled down a bit. That's something else you can always do is plan most of your driving for morning or late afternoon/evening and plan rest stops during the heat of the day.
