His prices vary depending on what you want. Here are a few prices he quoted me. I'm sure they are subject to change:

The three drawer hatcher with single fan ,200 watt nichrome wire heat element and pid controller would have a capacity of 100 chicken egg or best guess 36-40 goose eggs. Will not accept turning trays. Dimensions 24" tall, 14" wide and 21" deep. Drawers overall measurements 16" long 12" wide and 4" tall. Price $ 335.00 plus $60.00 shipping to 70647 . Or the three drawer incubator with three hatching drawers , dual axial fans, 200 watt ceramic core heat element, pid controller and three outlet power strip. Will accept the auto turn trays ( not included). Dimensions 22" tall, 17" wide and 21" deep. Drawer measurements 16 "x 15 "x 4". Capacity 120 chicken eggs or best guess 40-45 goose eggs. I made a mistake concerning capacity in my last reply. Sorry I have been throwing out numbers for custom size incubators and I'm confusing myself. Price $375.00 plus 65.00 shipping to 70647.

He also make a 2 tray hatcher for $250 plus shipping.

Well hello everyone, long time no see huh?  Sorry about that. 
A lot has happened since the beginning of this year.  I finished HS and now I'm working at a very nice private equestrian center as a riding instructor.  And I'll train a green horse every now and then. 
I don't have a bunch of chickens anymore, I'm down to one old rooster. 
That's about it, just thought I'd give y'all an update.  Haha I'm like a ghost, man. 
Oh and I need to get that list on the first post removed because there is no way to edit it and I have about 50 messages in my inbox with people asking to be added to it!

So good to see you. Don't stay away so long.

Look what came in the mail yesterday! It was holding temperature within a tenth of a degree after only an hour of being plugged in! I can open it up, mess with my eggs, and it is back up to temperature withing minutes! The quality is absolutely FANTASTIC! Words cannot express how pleased I am with Hatchcraftincubators.com The incubator is very heavy and well made. It even has a power strip inside for me to plug autoturners into it. The got him to make me one with drawers so I can hand turn my goose eggs. The drawers can be removed and replaced with autoturners for when I hatch my chicken eggs. I was going to wait until after my geese stop laying to buy the autoturners, but I think the hubby felt sorry for me after losing the lamb so he order three of them for me last night

Some ladies like jewlery, and some like incubator equipment! Don't mind my mess! I destroyed that foam packaging trying to get this thing unwrapped! I already have a few goose eggs in here. I will be setting at least 8 more goose eggs when I get home. Hopefully these will all be fertile! It's my goal to have this puppy filled up by the weekend!

A coworker of mine has a bunch of Peking ducks, and she wanted to do an experiment. She is giving me 3 dozen eggs. One dozen will be straight out of the nest (no washing, refrigerating, etc.), the second dozen will be washed but kept at room temperature, and the third will be straight from the nest and into the refrigerator without any washing. We want to see just how much these things effect hatch rates. I'm always up for an experiment! Especially when it involves the possibility of free ducklings as my reward

I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOO JEALOUS !!!!!!!!!!! The heck with jewlery, give me that bator. Congrats!!! LOOKS GREAT !!!!!!!!

VERY well worth it. Great investment! As cheap as I am, even I would pay that amount for something like that.

I picked this big ole goose egg on yesterday and put it in the incubator.

8.9 ounces = 252.311 grams. I wonder how many of these eggs can go in Gracie's new incubator.

Are you wanting to do an experiment too?

Here is how I justified the expense to my self:

I figured if I am able to save at least 8 goslings from being cooked in the dreaded styrofoam incubators, then it will have paid for itself! Luckily, the hubby didn't argue!
