Good, Small Incubator ?

[123RedBeard]

As in, I have to add water every couple hours to keep it in range!!

Where abouts do you live ...

All "small" incubators will need water added ... big commercial ones will have water piped to it like your fridges ice maker ...

I live in Southern Oregon. Not too high up that it needs water that often! I bought it used so I'm not sure if Brinsea would still cover it under the warranty...

Hello, I was wondering if any of y'all that have tried to hatch eggs, got a good result with an incubator. I have looked at reviews for small incubators and of course, it will have bad reviews but sometimes I'm just not sure about it. I decided to ask some of you to tell me if you recommend a small-sized incubator, most likely for duck eggs but please tell me other experiences as well. Thank You, have a good day.

I just hatched 9 babies in a $50 generic from EBay . It held temp well. I managed humidity and tilting/ turning myself..altho it has roller bars. Preset temp is for Chickens. It has adjustable settings - but i lost the Manual. And can't say how just yet. Varied PO and F settings, if you know what that is. An Alarm sounds if Temp drops too low. Just remove and replace the power cord and it goes guickly back to default temp. Fan always on. Keep top vent open for air intake. Mine said it holds 16. I began with 18, 3 days upright, with roller bars out, then stacked the smaller eggs on top to test the turner. I thought the rolling conveyor design too rough for Shipped Eggs, so i unplugged the turner and let them rest before removing the bars. I hope the top eggs were not too near the heat for that night. Had over 60pct hatch, but still diagnosing duds.
