My new incubator!!!

[Krosfyre9838]

I bought this baby off temu for $130 sum odd dollars. It has three compartments and it can hold 176 chicken eggs. This is the fourth incubator I bought, my first being a 12, second 32, and third being 56 egg capacity. I had 30 chickens but now 8 new biddies hatched around my birthday.

Well after it was assembled I tested everything. I checked the humidity and the temperature. I'm sure it will work just fine.

I've been looking at incubators on Amazon for weeks now and I keep bouncing back and forth between what I want.

They sell this model on Amazon too, cant think of the brand off top of my head. But so far it works as it should, I transferred my eggs to the new incubator and they finished off and hatched out 8 biddies so far. I got it loaded up and ready for a bigger hatch next.

I'm using one chanmber for my eggs and the other chambers as brooders for the first day or so, until transferred into a bigger built container with a heat lamp.

Wow the 176 really means it fits 176 eggs! I don't need one nearly that big, seeing as how I'd only use it for quail eggs. Wonder how many quail eggs that would fit!?

Book says 264 bird eggs .. but that's also with a half inch spacing, I put my eggs touching each other, because I read somewhere that there's something to the eggs being close together and hatching around the same time.
