Incubator

But I just looked at it and Im thinking about one with more room any ideas
Anything with more room is going to be more than $400 or

The only brand name incubator that I can think of that has more room (42 egg max I believe) is a HovaBator. However, they are styrofoam which I personally am not a fan of, but some people absolutely love them. Other than that I think if you want something larger you will have to go with either a no name brand incubator if you want to stay under $400 or expand the budget and get something like a Sportsman or a Brinsea Cabinet incubator. There are also Dickie's incubators, but I think the cheapest one is around $500. You could also check your local craigslist farm and garden section to see if someone is selling their cabinet incubator for a decent price.
 
I use a farm innovators 4250 I have the old model and recently bought the new digital one. Holds 42 eggs i use the incutherm with probe for better control. They come preset for 99.5 but can be adjusted. The temp on mine is dead on with my incutherm but the humidity on the unit reads 10%low. Its 150 bucks at tsc. I also just hatched out 23 chicks in my old one and have turkey eggs set in my new one.

Thats what I bought recently. The temp on mine is off a little and humidity is way off. Should always use secondary instruments anyway,
I have chicks hatching in mine as I write this.
The OP is interested in something more expensive.
The reviews on these are really up and down.

You pretty much take a chance on all of em all the reviews are either love or hate. I guess it depends on how much you wanna drop on one to find out if you love or hate it.
 
I would definitely recommend the Brinsea mini advance 2 incubator. You can watch your eggs hatch through the well shaped incubator. It has an automatic turner and has a backup power supply. This company also sells the maxi that would be good for how many eggs you want.
