    Looking for suggestions on an incubator I am designing.

    I love the suggestion of having a gas sensor for alerting to a bad egg. I also believe keeping things simple is a wise choice as well. I, too, am not willing to rely solely on the electronics. I plan on having a lot of redundancy built into this incubator to prevent losses due to equipment...

    Looking for suggestions on an incubator I am designing.

    Hello fellow bird fanatics. I am designing an incubator (for myself at this point) and would love to get some feedback. The plan is to construct a mid-size, computer controlled incubator with full monitoring and adjustment capabilities via cell phone. My objective is to do so in a manner that...

    Looking for Roosters in Amarillo, TX

    I am in no hurry. Generally, lots of folks are looking to get rid of roosters. Not so much here lately. We can work out something. A Black Copper would thrill me to death. Let me know what your schedule looks like and we will work it out. Thanks so much.

    Looking for Roosters in Amarillo, TX

    I NEVER thought I would have to make this post, but a predator found it's way into my pen. Oddly, the hens were left intact. However, my roosters are obliterated. Reckon they did their job well. If anyone has anything, please let me know. Not picky on breed or mixture, just need them to be...

    Incubator pros and cons

    I will admit that my homemade incubators are quite similar, on the controls side, to many popular brands. This is due, in part, to the fact that I design and build control panels where I work. All of them have digital temperature and humidity controls. My biggest challenge was calibrating them...

    Incubator pros and cons

    I have heard great things about the Brinsea line. One of my incubators was made by me from scratch. The other was a styrofoam, again, modified by me. I cannot reinforce your thermometer statement enough. Thanks for the reply.

    Incubator pros and cons

    Good evening everyone. I want to start this discussion to provide another good overall repository of information for those who incubate or are looking to incubate eggs. I have experienced many of the offerings available from building my own to buying outright. All have been viable units but some...

    Sorry for my lack of activity folks. My computer croaked and we started a new business. I would like to throw this out there for discussion. I have used many different incubators. Some I built. Some I bought. I would like to hear everyone's' experience with their egg warmer of choice. Not...

    Incubating is not hard, but it does require a lot of attention. My best hatches were achieved in an incubator I built myself. I would highly recommend getting one with a fan as it keeps the temperature consistent all around the egg. An automatic turner is not a necessity, but it sure makes...
