My neighbor an I are trying our hands and incubating and hopefully hatching our first set of chicks. She bought an incubator but I would love to win the brooder for us to use!! Thanks for the opportunity.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise. I’m only 21/2 years into this lifestyle,
But it is soooo much more fun with your help!

Just found out about you today through a link on Facebook about fixing leg problems in chicks. I look forward to checking out your blog tonight when the children are asleep. I put my name in to win an electric brooder. It looks ideal.

I am a newby, and don’t even have my first chicks yet. Thank heavens for Chciken Chick. I never thought about first aid for chickens.
