Actual bator. I don't have any pics of it because it was during the days where a layman's digital camera's took 640 by 4-- something pictures. And if I did have pics, I don't have the computer anymore where they are on!

It was a good 7 years ago.

Basically this is what I did. I got one of those cardboard boxes paper comes in. Took the lid off, cut a heat lamp sized hole in it, placed clear plastic in the hole and taped it on the box cover. Then in the box, put a meat tray with water in the bottom and placed a wire grid on the meat tray, and then eggs on the grid. I then put a heat lamp over the hole witha light switch dimmer and off I went. Temps up and down humidity never measured, got some cute chicks out of it too. Too simple to even reproduce! I did have lots of time in middle school though. So I checked the thing constantly back then.
