hello! I have always wanted to incubate some eggs from my flock, so i figured that now is the time! But the problem is, i don't have an incubator! What is the best incubator that you guys have had and had good luck with? Thanks!

You've gotten some good suggestions. Love the still air, just bought that new one out there, it's just called the 48 egg incubator. It keeps temps and humidity like no other. The turning trays, usually no good from some that I've heard from and..for me. Had to go buy another turner. Love it now.

Love it!

guess what I did, I candled the dumb serama eggs, and twisted the light bulbs off to candle and forgot to twist them in again.  Never doing that again, is a bad habit to start.  

this time, it was all day, cause I forgot to turn the eggs at lunch  them little suckers have nottachance if any are fertile.  I left them in just in case. but most are clears.

but now I will have clears and four blood rings.... I swear I am going brain dead on all this crap they pumped in me....  I am going to need something to clean the toxins out to clean my brain.

Oh no! Sorry to hear that. Do you think mine are ok? During the night, after I upped the water and humidity for lockdown, the temp dropped to 98.5... Probably all night... I candled last night... Should I candle tonight and check on them? It's day 19.

@chicken hawk 33 Did you ever find those hatching eggs you were looking for?
You tried CL or Ebay?
You can put a "wanted" ad on CL for "hatching eggs" & get notified via email when someone lists them; don't have to keep checking that way.

We have a brinsea mini advance and it's very nice! My true love though is our coolerbator. A homemade incubator made out of a cooler. Sally has a great tutorial on here for how to build one. They are fairly easy and much less expensive than a brinsea! Although I did see a brinsea on craigslist recently.....hmmmm.....

Saloon Coop w/ Pallet Porch Roof

https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/saloon-coop-with-pallet-porch-roof Well hubs ended up working by himself on the sliding door, I walked out! you know how that goes, sometimes a voice gets raised and I need to walk. So I decided to do something I shouldn't until I am better. use the backpack blower. well, I know deep subject. I ended up falling three times, each time when I was walking backwards of course. But I am still in once piece, No hospital trips. And No divorce either win win. but I must admit I am not ready for that crap.

Omg Sally, I love this!! The saloon idea is adorable, great pics, perfectly awesome! And thanks for the credit on the fan. And I also hate those barrel latches on doors. I'm changing all mine out too. PITA's they are! Kudos to your kiddos! (oh, good luck with the peeing off the porch sign... I bet it wont work LOL)
