I am getting a incubator. What is the best for a 200.00 spending limit

I am looking into getting a incubator for the first time what does everyone recommend. Still air or circulated air, egg Turner or no egg Turner. And I have a $200.00 spending limit. But of course the cheaper the better just looking for a good incubator

I am very sad I have to pull out. My hen that started to go broody decided she wasn't to serious about and stopped sitting :(

There is hope yet for my participation. One of my girls has decided to go broody today :) I guess with all the snow and being cooped up she has decided to make the best of it and be a mommy.

thank so much for the info. I definitely a fan of research. I do a lot research before I commit and take the next step

this is more along my price range for now. We are wanting to do hatching on a much larger scale but dont want to spend the money until we know what we are doing. I am addicted to hatching and very sad I don't have a broody main reason we are looking into incubating
