Hello from South Africa!

I'd love to see it. Sounds like a community model. That will take some good chicken match to fill with eggs not over 7 days old. Wishing you all the best with this project. I will cheat and by a 180 egg model that is being built in South Africa unless the manufacturing center has been moved elsewhere.
Thank you! The idea is to load with around 100-110 eggs each week and doing continuous incubation. It sounds like you’re looking at the Surehatch brand. As far as I know, they are still being manufactured here in SA. Really good incubator. You might want to look at the 370 egg model, I believe they are on promotion and cheaper than the 180 egg model currently.
 
Hiya, and welcome to BYC!! :frow That would be cool to see.

Additionally, I'd get pictures of every step and you could create an article for it when you're done and test it out.
Thanks! I’ll do that, I’m still waiting on spares to arrive before I start the build. It will be fully automatic with turning, 4 x 88 egg trays. I could make it bigger by adding more egg trays but this size is what I need right now. I’ll document with pictures and share when we’re all done!

Yes the SureHatch is the brand. With the downsizing we have done and are doing more of we may never need more than the 180 with sequential hatching using a hatcher with it. I like the hatcher with the trays to keep breeds separated during the process.
 
Hi I’m new!
I am in South Africa, and recently started down the slippery slope of keeping backyard chickens.. I now have a few Black Copper Marans, Araucana (only one), Ameraucana, Rhode Island Red, Potch Koekemoer, some Easter Eggers and a few duckling we hatched a week ago..
I’m in the process of building a 352 egg incubator, if anyone wants to see I’ll create a post for it
Hello :welcome

I would love to see how you built this incubator. Maybe you could start a thread on this.
