Incubators...what type

[Hangin Wit My Peeps]

Can anyone tell me a good brand of incubator to buy...were looking at cheaper but good enough so that it works well and the babies are not dying off on us! Haha I have not even touched a chicken but here I am talking about hatching eggs already! I guess I AM hooked! You all just seem to make it look so easy and FUN

Get a hova-bator Genesis 1588. I've got 2 of them. You won't regret it. It's got an electronic thermostat so it make the temps easier to keep steady.

I agree with Katy! Hovabator Genesis 1588, seems like the easiest one to use

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive, I can't wait!

If u can figure out electrical wiring, make your own. I didnt want electricuted so I got the Little Giant. It was the only kind our feed store carried. It was like 30$. I am putting the eggs in tomorrow. This is myfirst. I heard alot of bad reviews on here, but then a new post came w people having 100% hatches in em too. Just make due with what u can. There's also a topic about people in the 50s usin crock pots and slow cookers. i figure if a crock pot can do it then so can I. I'll just have to moniter more closely than if I had an expensive one.
