looking to buy a incubater , any ideas

How many eggs are you wanting to hatch?
There are some small bators out there and some pretty large ones.

I currently have a Brinsea Ovation 28 Advance. You can't really go wrong with any Brinsea. They are not cheap but you get what you pay for

I have a farm innovators, and just got a janoel 12 and I love it. Will be getting a brinsea ex fully automatic incubator...but have to save up for that.

I would just say to the OP that if you get a Janoel be careful where you buy... I think there are a lot of fakes around on eBay etc (Chinese sellers and prices too good to be true etc). I’m not saying don’t buy online, but see if you can check that the seller is a registered dealer. That’s probably the case with many good makes of incubator, I just happened to notice the Janoel fakes particularly.

Yes, the janoels under 65.00 were crap looking, didn't look the same. Got mine from a top rated seller off amazon.

They say you should attempt to hatch at least 6 eggs, even if you only want say 4 hens, in fact if you wanted 4 hens, I would say set 8-10 eggs incase some don't hatch or you get roosters.

If there’s a built in thermometer, get out a reliable thermometer and put them beside each other to test it out, because built in thermometers are usually not accurate.
