Title: Chick Warmer?
Post by: valmont325 on August 30, 2019, 01:18:13 PM

I was told it was a things for baby chicks to warm up but idk, its interesting. On the bottom you can see there is a "water" spout and next to that is a pipe that looks like it was originally attached to something else, at the top of that pipe you see there is a "Box" for putting a liquid in.  Any ideas?  Is it for chicks or is it something else?

No idea, but if it had anything to do with chicks...it might be a seed germinator, for oat or millet sprouts? :-\

Rauville, you might be on to something, ……. that “thingy” could very well be an “in-home” …… seed (bean) sprouter machine.

I agree. Never seen a brooder like this before (unless it was a home-rigged one somehow!)
