Incubator Recommendations?

[EmmaRainboe]

Looking for a cheap incubator that still works well, any recommendations? Would it be cheaper to make my own? If so, how would I go about doing that? Would be hatching Ameraucana eggs. I'm extremely limited on money so cheaper with out being complete junk is better. Would rather pay slightly more for one that actually works than paying less for complete garbage. Thanks in advance.

NatureRight is the cheapest, good quality I know of. It's usually around 150$ on Tsc

You can build your own cooler bator for less than $50.
The most expensive part on mine was the rainbird thermometer outlet for about $20 via ebay.

Is this the one? https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/harris-farms-nurture-right-360

I have to agree with the NR360. Money well spent. If you have precious eggs, then worth the extra expense IMO.

Yes! I got it for a little less on Amazon.

What color Ameraucana will you be hatching?

I'm hopefully going to be doing blue wheaten. I've previously had Blue Wheaten Ameraucanas, unfortunately they were all roosters so I had to rehome them. Although earlier today I figured out a way to create a separate place for an Ameraucana flock and begin breeding them. Hoping it works out!

So exciting! Beautiful color. Will cross fingers for you that you get all pullets and one fabulous cockerel!

I have both Brinsea and just got the NR360 for my December hatches. I LOVE the Brinsea, but it is twice as much as the NR360. The NR360 seems to be the one that most people use on BYC and everyone is very positive about it. I was pleased with the way mine worked as well. I do not like the way the lid fits, only draw back I have found so far.
@CluckNDoodle has an excellent thread about the NR360 that is still running!
