AnswerYou are doing a good job with the ceiling fan. You might want to add a floor fan that continually circulates air in their direction, though not necessarily directly on them.
A panting bird is a concern. We immediately start misting them. The cool water with a gentle fan in their direction (again, not directly on them) is very helpful.
If you can't keep it under control with a fan system, a small air conditioner set on low should solve the problem.
How very good of you to care this much! Keep it up.
