I have the acrylic door and electronic thermostat.  I would say definitely get the acrylic door.  You can see inside without opening it up.

I would say get the 3 tray incubator and you can use the styrofoam incubators for hatching.  hatching does make a bit of mess in the incubators.

Good to know! Thank you so much! I do plan on keeping a few foamys for the quail. So using one (or a few) as a hatcher would work great.
 

A prior service military couple trying to wing it on a micro farm with silkies, showgirls and a call duck.

In the incubator: 27 eggs set 4/15 (one on 4/16)

In the brooder: 2 SGs, 1 silkie all white

DH breeding Coop: 3 Black Hens, 1 Splash hen and roo

White Coop: Too Many
