The metal heating elements that the farmers innovators type incubators use are quite cheap. $10 or so on ebay. This may be a better option. I completed a similar project a year or so ago and hatched several chicks. Good luck, if I can be any help please let me know.

***UPDATE 12/08/2014 Day 14 Monday morning, everything looks great. Temp holding steady at 99 Humidity this morning is 40%.

***UPDATE 12/05/2014 Day 11 Candled all of the eggs and found 13 to have not developed. 26 are going strong. Now there was about 1.5 doz eggs that were put in the bator that had been left out one night in sub freezing temp and most of the not developed eggs came from this section. Also found a...

Everything that you could possible want to know about hatching has been covered here. You may have to be more specific.

If I remember correctly you put the thermometer that came with it inside and the (while comparing the internal and the attached mounted thermometer) adjust the dial on the front to fond the correct temp. you will have to adjust and then wait awhile to see where it stabilizes the temp and then...

Couple of suggestion. Trying to drive a higher voltage buzzer with logic level (3.3v) is going to effect readings across your sensors as is lowers the voltage across the circuit. I would suggest using a buzzer that is supplies by another power source and using a transistor or relay controlled...

Dude, that is AWESOME. I would love some more info on how your DIY egg turner works. I forgot to add the the planned features the ultrasonic fogger for humidity control. We have purchased one but it is not on this version yet. The plan is to have the humidifier in a sealed external container...

is is the farm innovations (or something like that) model?

THat looks like it would be really awesome with a small fan attached. Maybe even one of the micro PC fans like you find on a video card. It would serve two purposes, disperse heat better and create air flow. You could switch off power to the heat when the desired temp is reached but leave the...

Hey Mister B, If you decide to pick up the idea again for using an arduino for control let me know. I can help with the coding.

Hey haggishm, I would definitely love to hear all the cool details on your project. Sounds pretty awesome.

Hi everyone, I have a project that I am working on and I thought I would post and document it here so perhaps I could get some feedback and hopefully even some suggestions from the community. I work for a software company of which the owner and myself are both chicken enthusiast. After talking...
