    Redwood Incubators - Information, help, for sale and wanted

    Hey guys, I'm wanting to sell my old Leahy, no trays, it turns on fan blows, and heats up. Help me on pricing? I've posted before, we were back and forth on restoring it. Then we moved and life happened.

    Chicks in coop?

    Yeah I'm a little worried about it but yesterday they just looked at the chicks and then walked away. I had the chicks in the house today but back out this evening and they still didn't seem interested in them. But I'm sure that could change at any moment Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    Chicks in coop?

    Does anyone put chicks straight in the coop with the big girls? I'm hoping it's not a horrible idea. We only have 2 chicks. We wanted to let the kids pick one each. We also have 4 hens. They mainly stay in the lower "run" or free range. They come up top to sleep and to lay. We put a light in the...

    Redwood Incubators - Information, help, for sale and wanted

    I posted my incubator that I posted pics of a page or 2 back on craigslist. I plugged it in, its heating up, fan is blowing. I'm asking $350, does that sound right. Too much or too low? It doesn't have drawers but has the runners for 5 or 6. I had considered making it look pretty and making...

    OK, I have decided after 4 months and the move is over, that i want to restore this thing. I was disappointed to find though that when i went to turn it on last the light did not turn on, and I don't believe it was heating up. I didn't leave it on for too long though. I am wondering, is the...

    LOL I don't know that I'll restore it. I just don't see it happening. I see it wasting away in storage all in the name of keeping it to keep it and I'd rather it go to someone to love it and use it. I'm such a pack rat though that I am so unsure. I have too much stuff I know that! LOL

    Redwood Incubators - Information, help, for sale and wanted

    Ahh yes, the seeds. I just assumed that since they held temps so well while on, that it may work for starting my seeds. (not on LOL) My house temps fluctuate so much due to poor insulation. Plus, keeping them in there kept my kids tiny fingers out of my little pots. LOL Anyway, I don't know...

    Redwood Incubators - Information, help, for sale and wanted

    Hi, I need some help. I have a lot of pictures! I acquired this incubator from a family member. I originally planned to see if I could use it (he had used it to hatch). I ended up not using it, I did turn it on, let it get to temp but I was nervous about using it. LOL Anyway, I eventually turned...
