Alright so I wanna make a small busines of selling easter egger chicks, I just love the breed and honestly would like everyone in my neighborhood to enjoy the breed as well, we have 7 week old chicks that should be laying in march so I wanna start it around that time. I'm planning on having one incubator that houses 30-50 eggs except I'm not to familiar with them and I would like more information on them or any recommendations I'm planning on keeping 10 easter egger hens and 1 easter egger roo I'm also planning on haveing 4 game hens for there broody Ness but Ill only select colored eggs for hatching. The thing is I want an incubator that dose everything by itself something that I won't have to turn the eggs or anything I want something that dose everything you just add the water for humidity I don't want some thing to expensive probaly something around 100$ thanks

Brinsea makes a 48-egg capacity incubator if memory serves, that is basically "set and forget", but you're going to pay quite a bit more than $100 for it, I'm afraid... https://www.brinsea.com/p-490-octagon-40-advance-digital-egg-incubator.aspx Building your own is also an option, though it may require a bit more work. Here are some plans:
