My new chicks love FF

Took them a couple hours to figure it out. First I played with it poking it to attract them, then I sprinkled dry feed, finally one began to eat, now all seven are chowing down. So glad I switched over and started these new chicks on it.

A Farm Innovators - 4200 pro series has a turner and fan. I Picked it up off a lady on the CO thread as she was getting out of chickens. I got that and a 2000 series still air one for $160

I hope everybody in yesterday's storm track and their loved ones and livestock are alright. Sending prayers your way.

The four house chicks are now outside chicks. I followed all the advice....they are in their own pen now that they can get out of and run back in if wanted. I gather them into their cage and put them into the coop at night. I think in 1 to 2 weeks they will be in the coop without the cage. The flock pays little attention to them...no issues. Thanks everyone.

Have you used this incubator or style off bator before?

 

[Leahs Mom]

No..I have never used an incubator. I'm always gathering information about everyone's incubators so that if I ever do purchase one I will be able to decide which to get.
