Incubator suggestions

I'm currently running an IncuView and so far I'm absolutely loving it. Temp is pretty rock steady unless my temp in the house suddenly rises or falls drastically thanks to the bipolar weather outside. :lol: Even then it hasn't varied more than a degree.
The built in thermometer reads on average only .3 -.5 hotter than what my brinsea spot check is showing so I'm extremely happy with that. Means I can be pretty hands off and go about my day with little worry.
The turner works fantastic. I've got it set to turn 8 times a day and I love how it turns eggs on their sides instead of upright. Seems much more natural that way.
The huge viewing area and the fact it's a plastic bator which makes for easier cleaning is also a big plus. It's definitely a HUGE upgrade from my Farm Innovators I used for a couple years.
I got it from Incubator Warehouse for about $175 plus shipping. The spot check thermometer I think is around $25 on the brinsea website.

Be sure to post pics of the chickies!! :jumpy:jumpy:jumpy
 
We have 8 out of 13 babies.. all of the eggs made it to at least day 19.. I have another post that explains those 4. One couldn't get out of its shell and I wasnt home to help.

I've seen cabinet incubators on Craigslist at least once a yr, nice newer ones (sportsmans) sometimes for around $200.
Once a NatureForm Safari that held 100s of eggs (I don't need that lol).
I bought a hova 1588 with the incuturn for around $210 shipped from incubatorwarehouse. Works pretty good, ....but I don't care much for it being made out of styrofoam.
If I had to do it again I'd build my own out of a small refrigerator using Incubator warehouses Incukit. They have complete digital setups for desktop or cabinet.
