    A friend gave me a very lightly used GQF 1270 Incubator. Does anyone here have any experience with this model and have any tips/advice to pass along?

    Lost power to the incubator!

    We lost power to our incubator today while we were at work. Got home and the temp was 67 degrees. No idea how long it was out, could have been 8 hours. Put it on a emergency generator since the power is still out and it is back to normal temps. We are on day 23 on a mixed batch of duck eggs...

    Incubator Recommendations?

    Our Pekins have started laying and we would like to hatch some of the eggs out as well as when our Welshies start laying. Also, a friend has runner ducks and he wants to hatch out some as well. We decided to go in on an incubator together but know nothing about them. Would appreciate any...
