I want to build my own incubator and copy a Dicky or GQF Cabinet style. So far I have a 250 watt heat element and Helix DBS1000 thermostat....I'm almost there. I need assistance on inside dimensions and location of humidity holes and the best location for the heat probe.
If any of you have a better mouse trap for turning the eggs automatically would be appreciated. PICTURES ARE BETTER THAN WORDS....email them to me : [email protected]
I've searched the net and do not want a Styrofoam. The cost of these are way to high for me for what you get.
I will be incubating chicken, pheasant and turkey.
Of course I must look at the over all cost of this project as well. I can purchase a Dickey Cabinet for $540...it comes with electronic therm and humidity, plus auto turners...dickeyincubators.com He makes a better cabinet than GQF, with the same guts.
So far the element and Therm has cost me $145.00
Any help would be appreciated...........
