Does anyone use a homeade incubator??

[XL506]

Just wondering if anyone uses a homeade incubatore. I've read theyre fairly easy to make. I love making things, so I was thinking of making one myself. I would love to see some eggs hatch out of an incubator that my hands built. Post some pics of your incubators if u dont mind.

There are TONS of pics and threads here about homemade incubators. Just do a search.

Miss Prissy has one on her page you should check it out it is pretty cool and a lot of others have done it(with their own modifications).

I just hatched 3 out of 7 eggs (still got a couple of days before hatch is done) with an incubator that i made, I used Miss Prissy's as a guildline and it is working out just great. Only have to make a couple of adjustments after this hatch is over with. Love the fact that i made it with my own hands. DH only had to help with the wiring and the rest was all me :

I use a homemade one as well (again, from Ms Prissy's posts!) and it worked out great. And how awesome is it to tell people that I built my own incubator? Everyone looks at me like I'm a freaking genius!

I made mine from an old freezer, it worked so good I made another for a hatcher..and my total cost for both is about 75 dollars

I have 2 homemade incubators going right now, one with Turkeys (experimental color mixes from Porter) and the other has Mille Fleurs and they are developing quite nicely! I will hatch the turkeys right in the same incubator as it is a nice big worm box from wal-mart, can't wait to see the results!

and of course I owe Miss Prissy for the inspiration to build both of them!

I have made 3 of Miss Prissy's incubators, and I love them all.
