I’ll probably end up getting another MagicFly if anything. Maybe another model or something. Lots of peeps recommend Brinsea but I don’t see anything spectacular about them really.

Their prices are too high that's for sure.

Definitely. A silkie breeder here in AL that I know has one, it’s just like my MagicFly just waaaay more expensive. Same material too. Not more durable... the same.

I don’t mind paying a lot for something that is good quality but for an incubator that I can get the same usage out of by choosing the cheaper option...? Then yeah I’m choosing the cheaper one then

Mine only costed me at most $56-$75.

My Hovabator was $85 I think? And my MagicFly was $45. I had another one I paid a good bit more for and it was TRASH. Actually... it’s in the trash!

If my other one tries cooking my chicks again, it'll be in the trash too.

My Hovabator will literally go from room temperature to 110F in minutes. It’s about to be in the trash too.
