Incubator Experience

[Namres]

We have an incubator http://www.surehatch.co.za/Surehatch-Model-90-Hobby-Egg-Incubator.htm , but not all that successful hatching any eggs in there.

As anyone got experience with this type of incubator that he could share?

I assume you don't live in the U.S. right?? It looks like a painted homemade styrofoam incubator. I don't know what the thermostat looks like, and I bet it is an electronic thermostat. What went wrong with your hatch?

 

[Namres]

Yes, its all electric. Hatch has not been very successful. getting around 20% success rate out of it. I thought that maybe someone got experience with this type.

I have a Brinsea Mini Advance, and i got a 4 of 4 on my very first hatch.

they are pretty good incubators for the beginner
