    microwave incubator

    I made my first incubator out of an old microwave. I took out the magnatron and all the guts and had a nice insulated box left. I used the stock cord and just added more wire where I needed it. Wired up a hot water heater thermostat and a computer fan. Used a small tupperware bowl and sponge...

    Need hatch buddies due Oct 25-26th PIC'S

    Looked in the microwave bator today and had 2 pips. Out of the 12 eggs I had set I had to chunk 7. 3 bloodrings and 4 not fertile. But 2 pips are better than none. Hope everyone else is doing great.

    In a pinch, could my oven incubate?

    You could use a microwave but you would have to remove the magnatron and install a lightbulb for heat. I made a micro-bator and have already hatched 6 chicks in the first test hatch. So if you have an old micowave laying around just remove all the guts in it and built an incubator out of it.
