    WTB Golden Campines - SC

    Does anyone in the Lexington, Columbia, Sumter or Florence area have a Golden Campine roo and at least 4 hens around 3-4 months old? I had a dog come through my yard who took out 5 of the 6 Campines I had while they were free ranging.

    Day 8- how do I get humidity past 45?

    I have put 2 sponges in the bator, the wells are full and I have reduced the air flow being pulled out by the fan and I also blocked the top vent so only the bottom vents are pulling in air. The humidity was at 38 and now after doing the above it is still only at 45. This is a LG still air we...

    I have a funny feeling this little guy is going to end up with lots of special treatment and a fairly large piece of my heart.

    Not happy with Little Giant ~ suggestions?

    I have an LG still air and a Hovabator 1602 still air or they used to be. I have to admit they were both difficult to regulate but if you add a pc fan to them they work much much better. I also sat my LG on a phone book so the air flow is better. Both are holding consistant temps now between...

    No idea what this little guy is...has 4 toes, is mostly black and sort of silverish. Picture doesn't really do him justice...he's pretty fuzzy...thought at first he was a silkie but not enough toes. Any ideas?

    Update: Need some day old Salmon Faverolle chicks-found some.

    Just hatched out a new chick last night and looks like he is going to be the only one from the 10 I set . If he is going to survive he'll need some buddies so I was hoping someone near me would have a few day old to 1 wk old chicks I could buy.

    Another question about incubators

    Bet it's a still air...if it is put a pc fan (the small ones) in it...makes all the difference in the world...i could not control the temps in mine until DH installed one. Still takes alot of messing with but not as much.
