If we need it to, it can hold 5 turners with 41 eggs each. Hubby is building a hatcher tonight, so we will only be incubating in this from now on. Total it cost was less than $40 for the fridge and all the electrical stuffs. Add in the turners and it is more, of course. Holds temp and humidity great and I love the big glass door to look in durning hatching!

ETA: I can't spell today...

We've been looking for one of these to make a hatcher out of. For now, he is using a huge styrofoam cooler to make the hatcher.

Hi. I made my own incubator out of a thick styrofoam cooler (like the Omaha Steaks kind).

Has been working great! I'm on day 15 of my first round of incubating.

I built mine from an old cooler too. I recieved the cooler free from a freecycler.

Here's the link to my incubator page.

Fridge-a-bator....hold two turners with one tray removed from each one, so about 82 eggs total. Hold heat and humidity perfectly. It's just for incubating...hatcher is below.

Wine cooler hatcher....love hatching different silkie varieties (colors) in different trays
