Just got my murray mcmurray catalog. I really have my eye on The Mini Advanced incubator.
It says it will do 7 hens eggs and has an automatic turner, and costs $149.99


Does anyone have this incubator? How do like it? Or does anyone have a similar mini incubator that they would recommened?
 
I don't recommened a mini one at all!! The reason is bc once you start hatching chances are you are going to love it
and want to hatch more and more and next thing you no you will be asking yourself why you didn't buy a regular size one
in the first place! Full size bators aren't that much more in price and I think you will save some money in the long run just
buying the full size version.
Jsut my .02!!
 
Ditto. Shop around too, you might find a lower price. Meyer hatchery has package deal cheaper then what you are looking at for a Mini. (You can hatch more at time

I just bought a 2nd Brinsea Eco 20 with turner for $149 including tax and shipping.
Turning is automatic rocker. The humidity is super easy to control. I only have to add water about every 4-5 days.
And it will hold 24 hen eggs (although hatching this number is a little nose-2-butt for my liking.)
It not much more than the Mini-advanced and honestly we all pay attention to the incubator every 4-5 days anyway.

Hatching 24 at a time will hold you for a year or so. I fear the Mini is just going to make you want MORE too.
 
I got one for Christmas and I love it, only thing I don't like is it's not big enough. I am addicted. I had my first hatch and I now have two cute chicks. The others did not hatch due to me and not the bator
