Awww.

Is it spraddled? If so, it's very curable...oops--never mind. I saw the pics...I think that issue looks like it originates from it's hips. I'd say that it does need to be put down.

I agree it needs to be put down... but I would use a pair of shears and snip the head off... rather then let it freeze. but that is just me.

what is the incubator?

Hey! It's a custom cabinet bator. I used it for one season and it holds three LG or Hovabator turning racks, plus it's got a hatching drawer on the bottom. The front is solid glass and it's got two fans, a wafer thermostat and a little door on top to add water. It does hold over 100 eggs. It's a mahogany color and made from real wood. It also has lights in it for heat and to see what's going on in there.

I used it last spring/summer to hatch chickens, Muscovies and geese (African & Buff) with great success.

I came to the sad realization that I won't have the time for hatching hundreds of chicks any time soon and it is too big for the small living room it's in--so DH wants me to get rid of it. I wish I didn't have to and that I had a place to store it until I had time for hatching lots of chicks again--but we really don't have any place in the house and it's too nice to be out in a shed.

I paid over $400 + shipping for it new but I'm open to offers. I just need it gone since DH is threatening to use it as firewood.

I am planning to bring it to Monroe with me. It does weigh around 60lbs.

I can e-mail you some photos if you're still interested.

Is anyone into Betsy Johnson? I have a necklace I'm going to sell...it's not my style at all...my aunt bought it for me (no gift receipt). It's a horse & chicken-themed one.

Getting ready to cozy up next to the wood stove with a bowl of toffee chunk ice cream and a big fleece blanket!

I just checked, it's 17 degrees out and I bet the wind is 50-60mph...so it's got to be below zero out. Audrey is snuggled in our bed since her room gets so cold on nights like this.

I will set here by my stove and be just happy as a broody silkie on a batch of RIR B eggs with a warm 29* outside.

maybe you can loan it to someone for the year? and see if next year you can hatch again?

I euthanized it.
