How do I make a homemade Hatcher????

[Rosecomb-Ryan]

Can someone tell me what I would need to buy to make a homemade Incubator? I want to make my own!




Thank you SOO much,
Ryan

This is a great link for your how-to. I would recommend wafer thermostat instead of a hot water heater thermostat. Its been smooth sailing since I got the wafer.

i bought some 11/2 styrofoam insulation so I could make a bigger bator those ice chests are too small,IMO,I cut out pieces and taped them togather and presto I had a bator,but I used the water heater thermostat and its not very steady,but I have hatched lots of chicks in it but id like to try a different thermostat,and maybe a better therometer the accurite is pretty good but i have 2 and they read different sometimes
