Good afternoon everyone!

Had an interesting find in the barn this morning....

It seems one of my LF girls and my silkie rooster must have had a date a while back. Ten little ones in the hay loft, I am guessing about a week old. All have silkie feathering down the legs, some have the beards and tufts showing a bit.
Guess that was payback for my Columbian Roo/silkie hen liaisons at New Years
No idea how they survived as there is no food or water in the loft?
Scooped em up and dropped them into the brooder when I found them. Mom nowhere to be seen.
Had to sub-divide the brooder this morning, I am expecting my Auracana chicks to start hatching tomorrow.

We also had a another 'little' addition this week...

Meet Princess, eight week old Great Pyrenees pup. We were on the breeder's waiting list, and one of the other interested parties dropped out at the last minute.

Have a great day everyone!

Hello I have a bit of a random question that I was wondering if any of you have an answer to. So I have I still aired incubator that I am innovating into a fanned aired one and I also wanted to make humidity in it automatic. I wanted to know if there is a way to do that so I don't have to worry about the humidity change. Is there something small and cheap that I can buy for that? Thanks for even reading and hope I was not to off of the topic on this thread.

I dont know about automatic, but I believe on the first pages Sally has noted a system that one of the members posted using an aquarium pump and a small pop bottle for adding humidty on a steady basis. i believe they were using a valve in the air line to regulate the flow and thus the humidity.

The "topic" on this thread is more times than not "no topic" in particular; just whatever happens along 'til someone needs help.

I don't have an answer for you, but Sally probably does, or knows where to point you; she does read backs frequently and will see your post.
