ANY HOME-MADE INCUBATOR DIRECTIONS OUT THERE!

[MaranDude]

I need a home-made incubator. So if anyone has a successful set of directions for building one then I would be interested.

Yea i would like one too. something that I dont have to do to much wireing. I'm known to put red with black. Ive seen them arround but there is no exact page to look at. I would be nice to have one added to the how to pages on this website.

Mine is made from a 48 qt cooler

I'm incubating in it for the 2nd time right now.

 

[speckledhen]

Yeah, Lee and I used the same exact cooler, LOL.

Google 'homemade incubator' and you will find lots of ideas.

I looked around today, surprised to see that all my bators are homemade. I guess Ive graduated.

I just finished building the one Miss Prissy did with the styrofoam cooler. I am getting eggs to give it a test run next week. Here is a link...was very easy and inexpensive:

We built a Miss Prissy style bator, liked it so much we built 2 more. Each one cost less than $20 and took less than an hour to assemble.
