"Buckeye" Brooders 



or The Secret of Chick Raising 



It is a matter of record that poorly constructed 

 brooders are responsible for the death of niore 

 chicks than any other one cause so we consider 

 it most advisable to call particular attention to 

 the importance of using a type of brooder that 

 will property care for the chicks after they are 

 hatched. 



Chicken raising- don't end with the hatching. 

 The old hen provides a place where the chicks 

 can get warm and another place toexcercise and 

 eat. 



That's what we do in Buckeye Brooders. 



It's hardly fair to the old hen, but we must tell 

 you that a good artifical brooder is better than 

 she is. 



Chicks must have a certain kind of heat. 



That is— it must be just ' so warm" or they suffer. 



A temperature that is either too warm or too 

 cold will produce bowel troubles and bowel trou- 

 bles are bad for little chicks. 



In addition to this proper heat, they must 

 have plenty of fresh air; if they don't get it, 

 they won't thrive. 



Buckeye Brooders 



And last but not least, we must prevent 

 them from crowding. 



We'll begin with our Lamp Heated Brood- 

 ers. 



First of all these brooders are heated by the 

 same system used in Buckeye Incubators — cir- 

 onlating hot ^^ater. 



It keeps every corner of the brooder at exact- 

 ly the same temperature. 



And it's that even distribution of heat that 

 prevents the chicks from crowding. 



If one point in a brooder is warmer than an- 

 other each chick tries to get there. 



We have a heat regulator on Buck- 

 ej-e Brooders that takes care of every 

 condition. 



It absolutely controls the heat 

 of that brooder regardless of con- 

 ditions. 



It's a good bit harder to regulate the 

 heat in a brooder than in an incu- 

 bator. 



When you once regulate the tem- 

 perature to a particular point it wiU 

 stay right there 24 hours every 

 day.

'*Buckeye'* Lampless Brooders 



"V'ou know that you can be perfectly comfort- 

 able in a cold room if you have plenty of blankets 

 over you, in fact, if you know how to sleep under 

 the most healthy conditions you wont have any 

 fire in your room at all. The heat that keeps 

 you warm is supplied by your own body, the 

 blankets simply keep it in. That's the prin- 

 ciple of the lampless brooder. The chicks get 

 under the blankets and keep warm. On the in- 

 side of e.'ich Buckeye I,ampless Brooder we sus- 

 pend a whole lot of little flannel blankets from a 

 burlap roof that is stretched across the top. The 

 conditions in these lampless brooders are exactly 

 the same as we find under tlie hen. When a chick 

 gets under a hen he pushes his back up against the 

 feathers and he's satisfied. The blankets in Buck- 

 eye Lampless Brooders take the place of feathers. 

 The chirks get under them. pu=h their backs up 

 against them and they'er satisfied. 



That's Why They Don't Crowd.

General Brooder Information 



All Buckeye Brooders are raised from 

 the ground. 



That avoids dampness and protects them from 

 intruders. Each brooder is furnished -with 

 an excercising room — The cliicks eat in one 

 room and sleep in another. Every Buckeye 

 Brooder leaves the factory complete — ready 

 for use. We send everything you need. There 

 are no "extras" to buy.

It Hatches Every Hatchable Egg— Fvery Time. 



On March IJ, 1912. Mr. Jas. Rayncr, of 30-t 

 Boiildcn Street , Baltimore . Md., -writes as follows: 



YourSO-Egs Buckeye Incubator is O. K. I had 

 a ha/ch off AlarchTth, 1912. From 50 eggs I have 

 47 Chicks as fine as youivant to look at. Out of 8 

 hatches, my lowest hatch was41 Chicks. You 7nay 

 use this for TV hat it viaybetvorth to you, and if you 

 like yoti can send anyone out to investigate for 

 themselves." 



Unsurpassed by any other Make. 



Having had one of your 50 egg incubators in use 

 for the last season and finding it all O. K., /thought 

 I ivonld write you of my results. I have had six 

 hatches off the machine and out of the six runs I 

 lost 17 eggs. The last two hatches were 46 from 48, 

 and 47 and 48 chicks, which I think is doing some- 

 thing at hatching chicks, and in the two hatches 

 mentioned the regulator was not adjusted through- 

 out tlie entire hatch, and the temperattire ran^just 

 fine. 



Nozv the next thing I want is a full description 

 of your 2U0 egg machine, and also the price of same, 

 as / have run my machine along side of other 

 makes and find it unsurpassed by any other make 

 in use that I know of in our community. Hoping 

 to hear from you at an early date.
