Hi,

I am pretty much a newby....have had my chickens for about a year now and am thinking about getting an incubator to try a little hatching.... So, what is the best, not too expensive, incubator out there? I am disabled and am home all day so don't really think I need an automatic turner...or would it be better?

Thanks for any input.
