Wow that is amazing its soo big how many eggs can it hold?

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!

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.
 
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.
