HomeMade Incubator Contest - 3/09 - Winners Announced!

[HappyHatch'en]

Someone told me the computer fans are intermittent....made to run ever now and then, not full time...but they are cheap....how about an old refridge, they have a fan at the bottom....Grainger.....
good luck....I'm looking as well for a fan

Well, I thought the computer repair place would have a used one cheap. Nope...only new ones for $15. I DO, however, have a humidifier that hasn't been used in 2 years...time to get the tools! LOL

I got a pc fan, and it blew up. I used a regular plug from my computer as the power source and the PC fan couldn't handle it since it's only 12V. I ordered a 120V fan off ebay that was for some kind of old radio, and it's working beautifully. Can't wait to finish up the small details, and let it run, and see how it works..

I finally have my 'bator and page complete. My 6 year old twins and 2 1/2 year old daughters put the incubator together with my direction.

I went crazy putting together the webpage because the program was running SUPER slow! The kids loved the challenge (me too!) and of course watching the eggs. Well here it is....'Batorvision

 

[chicks for better health]

I should be assembling mine in the next few days. I know have all the parts except for the t stat. I have settled on a design that will look like a piece of furniture instead of a incubator. I haven't completely designed the finished shell, but the inner cabinet is ready to go for now. I will post pics soon.

I can't find the thermostat you all use ANYWHERE!!

Can anyone buy one and send to to me if I pay for it??

I used a wafer thermostat that I purchased from Cutler Supply. I'm not sure what thermostat you are looking for...

I have half of my bator/hatcher done. If temps still look good in the hatcher tomorrow, my eggs will go in there and I will get the bator part done (I have to pirate parts from my styrobator ). So far it has been nothing but trouble, but it is slowly coming together and I may finally get what I want along with a chance to enter a contest! lol
