What styrofoam bator do you use? I got a cheap one to try last time and it didn't work so well.

Just had a 80% hatch on shipped eggs! Getting ready to load it up again. Works like a charm.

So true about the worrying thing! My DH keeps telling me to stop worrying! I have just let it do it's thing the past two hatch, but I have Isbar eggs in there now and they cost a pretty penny! I just want to make sure I am doing all the right things.

Thanks for posting. I have hatched twice in my Eco, but I really like what you did here with the sponges and paper towels. Thanks for sharing! Also, how open do you keep the little hole/slot on the lid?

Getting ready to set my third set of eggs using the Brinsea Octagon 20! Works like a charm!

Hello, I found a photo of it on a different thread. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=579047&p=3 I have never used a Hovabator so I am sorry I don't have an opinion. A friend let me borrow her Brinsea a while back and I loved it! I know some people incubate in Brinsea and...

Congratulations on the hatch! Here is the link to the New Years Day hatch thread (egg setting day is Dec. 11th.): https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=590706

Thanks everyone for all the info. I just ordered mine! I am hoping to get it in the mail in time to do the New Years Day Hatch!
