Has anyone every built their own? I currently have a Little Giant styrofoam bator thats still air. I've had some success with it, but recently I've wanted one a little bigger.

But call me cheap, I can't afford an incubator that is hundreds of dollars. Even second hand ones that I have found, are out of my budget.

So I am thinking of building my own, plus its more fun to me if you build your own stuff.

Anyone have any pics of ones they've built, or any tips?
 
Do a search for homemade incubator - there are several great threads with lot's of pic and how to info. You will be amazed!

I definitely will. I've thought about building my own incubator for a while now, and I've found a few sets of plans online. But usually they are put out by ag extension offices, or college ag classes, and they usually aren't very helpful. The pictures are usually sketches, the diagrams are usually not very detailed, and the instructions are written in such a way that you need an electricians degree to read them.

This thread is so much easier to read and understand. I'm going to start gathering materials this week. I probably have all that stuff laying around...
