issue is not width per say, I have one ccl hens eggs that dont fit in the little plastic nubs, it just balances on them and I dont want to jam the eggs in there either. I can always set hers in a dif cooler, just a pain to do so.

Hey, on a happier note, I might be getting a cooler tonight from a thrift store so I think I'll try and make a cooler incubator, if you are okay with me stealing your invention.
awesome! cant wait to see it! I love the cooler incubators and this one just puts it over the top.... love love love
I don't know how it will turn out though... Oh well, I'll just do my best.
its not difficult, just think out how your fan will blow on the light bulbs and keep the lights up but not high enough to melt the top, place the fan so it blows the heat from the bulbs but try to place it so it blows the bottom of the bulbs so you dont have too bad of hot spots under the lights. if you place the fan even with the lights you will get hotter like two degrees under those lights. and wire over your fan so you dont scalp chicks..... I havent killed any yet with the fans!!
Okay we'll see how I do.
Wow, that's a lot! Are you keeping all the chicks you get?
Hatch complete, added aprox 50 eggs into the bator this morning.....
I will need to get a small tray for serama at some point. and a larger one as some of the CCL are a tad too large and I dont want rollers!
I have orders for big lots of brahma in the next few weeks, pray the hens give us what we need and I think we need to build another bator like this to keep up.
So this is for your business. That's awesome.
there are the plastic trays for duck eggs that hold 20 instead of 30 (or 48 with your trays)
