How much do you have in you Incubating Hobby?

I started with three chickens at $24 then 3 more at $9 rooster was FREE. I decided that I wanted to start incubating so I made a homemade one that has run me around $35 or so and I might have to put more into it with the thermostat might not be going out already. That is not counting the month feed bill.

 

I won't even go there on how much Lets just say too much but I love my hobby so that's all that matters to me.

 

Quote:I agree! I have 4 hova's right now with 3 running. Love LoVe my hobby and in the long run it keeps me out of the malls for the most part saving my hubby lots of money.

 

$Thousands$

that's with an "s"

 

i agree. i don't even want to know. plus if i did say it out loud. hubby might not be so understanding.

 

week 3 about 375 but whos counting i have chickens to entertain me and eggs to feed me im about to cancel my cable cause i watch my animals more than tv the real question is not how much on incubators its how addicting it is to start buying more and more chickens so you have eggs to incubate

 

You mean I was supposed to keep track?

 

Ditto, I have not added it up. Don't want to know! Haha!

 

my first 2 bators were home built probably 30 for both then I upgraded them with electronic t-stats at 55 each and then bought a used hova for $20 added a computer power supply fan 2 for $3 I had the power converters laying around I have bought 2 egg turners the last 2 years one was used $15 for that one and like 42 for the new one
