If there the sportman Ive seen them in magazenes.. They are quite big. Are they smaller than these incubators? https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=52820&p=1

Smaller and a lot newer, I'll have pics in a bit I just sent my son out to take pics of the two cabinets and a couple of bell shaped things.

LOL anything is newer than them.... I was just compareing sizes..... If it is a sports man. they usually sell for arroud a 600 bucks

I agree that if u are selling them to buy something you can use it would be ok. What a wonderful freind you had to leave you with something that will give back to you for years to come.

Those are sportsman and some of the better large scale incubators. It is a shame you can't use them. Some people would give their eye teeth to have just one let alone 2.

If you sell them and they work well you should get about $300 - $400 each for them.

You were left a very nice gift by your friend Charlie. You are very fortunate.

They are nice, one of my neighbors was riding by on horseback and stopped to admire them. I've been thinking about trying to use one myself but I just don't have anywhere big enough to set up one of those.
I should have moved them apart so you could see the brooder behind it.

It looks like one might have been used as a hatcher. If you could keep them and use them you really have a treasure most people want and many will never get. If you sell them don't be hastey and get what they are worth even if it take a while. i am sure Charlie would understand and not want you to loose money on them that could be used for equipment you can use.

Those are some nice bators there. What a great friendship you had with Charlie. I agree, selling them to get what better fits your needs is a great idea. Are those automatic bell waterers? NICE!!
