Brinsea Mini Eco

[Weetamoo93]

Looking for something unrelated and I found Stromberg has the Brinsea Mini Eco on clearance since it was discontinued (even though the photo is the Mini II Advance). I can't find a lot of information on it since it's been discontinued, so I can not find reviews for it.

I'd eventually like something larger, like the highly recommended NR 360, as I get more serious/have more space, but just want the option to set up to some eggs occasionally for the time being. I realize I'd be manually turning the eggs, but up to 10 eggs I think I can handle. And it'll be nice to have a few planned hatches rather than fully relying on my hens to go broody.

Would this be a good deal on an incubator? I am super psyched to give this a whirl but hesitate since all sales are final.

What's the sale price on it?

I managed to find two reviews on it:
Countrified Hicks & Lab Equipment Center

Chewy has a good deal ($159) on the Mini II Advance, but I think I'll go with the Eco since the Advance only holds 7 eggs versus the 10.

Went ahead and ordered it, because I've been thinking about it since I found it and the two reviews sounded promising.

Total with shipping for me was about $90.

How are you finding it? Thinking of buying the same one.

So apparently Stromberg didn't take it off the website even though it was out of stock. Bummer.

So, now I happened across a deal on the eco maxi which has the 30 egg capacity. My question: is there a minimum? Can I run an incubator with a 30 egg max with only 10 eggs?
