Cabinet incubator suggestions

[andypettis3370]

I have decided after looking at several of the nicer table top incubators for a little more I can get a cabinet incubator. The only thing is that they are so big. I was wandering if there was a cabinet incubator that wasn't so big? I am looking for one that has a smaller capacity. I just cant see paying close to 200 for a piece of styrofoam. Is there any incubators that you would suggest? I can't find any other than the bigger ones that holds 500 plus eggs. I am looking for one that will hold around 300 or so eggs but not looking to spend 600 on one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you looked into making one? Considering doing this myself, probably going to start collecting pieces this weekend.

I have thought about that and using one of the fan kits from incubator warehouse. I was just wondering if I could find one ready to go for a little more than the table top incubators. This is the link to the fan and heater kits.

I talked to Mr. Dickey today I really think that is the one I am going to save up and get. Has anyone had any experience with his incubator?

Excellent cabinet incubator. Do a search here on Dickey Incubator. You'll find lots of posts.

Yeah I haven't heard anything bad about them and he is a very nice and knowledgeable man. I just got to get the money up to get one. I wish I would have saved all the money that I have spent on these styrofoam ones I would be over halfway to one. I just wanted to make sure I could hatch some before I spent that kind of money on an incubator. Like Mr. Dickey told me today if you can hatch them with those things I have I will be able to hatch anything with his.
