LOL!!! The junkyard car antenna worked well for us for over 5 years (including brutal Michigan winters). I understand, if you can get the antenna from junkyard then just buy a $200 auto door off Amazon.

Just reading your message now. Glad it worked for you. :-)

Thank you! Crazy you can sell everything else on FB but not chicks........Crazy!

Hopefully I can ask this question here - How do you list/advertise your chicks for sale? FB doesn't seem to want them listed in Marketplace for in the various yard sale groups. What other avenues are there? Please private message me if you would like. Thank you.

How did you reset your timer? Thank you.

I heard this years ago about TSC. They are doing it because of PITA and all the grief that TSC was given by that group. It's really stupid on TSC's part because at our store we often see the chicks discounted to $.59-cents as they get over a week old because no one wants them. They have most of...

TSC and their dumb rules stink! I boycott TSC! We have Family Farm and Home too. They will let you buy just 1 chick if you want!

Is there a way to cut the single wire power adapter wire as to separate the hot and cold wires inside? In the second adapter pictured there are 2 wires coming out which would work, but I only have a single wire adapter that I would like to use. Is this possible?
