I guess I better figure out how many eggs it can hatch and start adding to my little flock LOL!!

Of course our oldest surprised us yesterday came home to visit (college) and so I had to call the man and tell him we would have to pick it

up next weekend!!! I almost forced our son to go with us but!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is my babyhugs.gifso the Kuhl can waitdroolin.gif

I did call the Kuhl company and they sent me a manual on it, and also will have to purchase trays as this is set up for Emu eggs but it will be worth it

Thanks everyone!! I was almost having buyers remorse but then I went downstairs to my 8 little incubators and got over it real quick!!

Mother of 2 boys, 8 horses, 4 dogs, 3 cats, 36 (now 90) laying girls, 1(now6)+ roosters and 2(+4) turkeys and wanting to expand next year!!(chickens that is)(Well already expanded lol) oh yeah and wife to one heck of a guy!!

They did say make a reasonable offer?

PS Getting tired of running 5 small incubators

4/7/12 UPDATE: After driving 3 hours to look at these, they required waytoo much work and they were HUGE!!!!!! So didn't purchase them(they are still available).

So decided to make my own fridge bator

2012-04-06_17-48-05_559 inside.jpg2012-04-06_19-37-16_186 framed for plexiglass window.jpg

 

$13.00 total so far for plexigalss, had screws and misc pieces of wood at home, 2 hours of labor. Today will attach plexiglass, frame it, then start to wire it, am going to use an incukit 66.00 for heat, already have egg turners from ALL my small incubators and will hopefully fill it by monday LOL
