Little Giant Egg Turner

I had a little giant egg turner that was working just fine and then one day just decided to quit. anyone know what might be wrong? anyone had same problams?

Two Words: Little Giant. That's whats wrong.

Oh wait, your talking about the egg turner.

The motor died, they're pretty much universal, so get a new motor and life will be good again.

On a side note,

Are you using an LG Styro-Bator?

If you are, then do yourself a favor when the LG electronic thermostat dies. Go by a GQF (Hova-Bator) Wafer thermostat and put that in. MUCH less problems that way.

LG's are the Red-headed stepchildren of Incubators, hence the first line of my answer.....

You can find all the parts necessary to "upgrade" your LG. Pretty cheaply too....

Heating element Around 13 dollars.

Thermostat assembly around 70 bucks. Spendy, but it would get rid of the LG's issues....

You could also use these in a Homemade Incubator. I'm in the market for a non-functional mini-fridge so I can build one....
