Are you planning to hatch a lot of eggs, or a few?

How much do you like to spend?

How many eggs do you want to incubate at the time?

most of us are dont use the still air incubator.
we like the Genesis 1588 or the brinsea eco

also you will need a digital thermometer hydrometer combo and testing the hydrometer before use is recomended

google hydrometer salt test and you will find how

this is a good thrtmomrter hydrometer combo

I got mine at Tractor Supply Co. but im sure they sell them in many places.

i made an incubator with a cardboard box and a lightbulb

it works seriously but if you really want to buy one then but the Hovabator with the automatic turner (a lot of people can turn 6 times a day) its good and i have 13 eggs in there right now!

i heard that was good, i tried the cardboard box thing and i failed. i saw a hovabator on ebay for like 93.00 it has the digital thermometer and hydrometer and auto egg turner, i was gonna buy a turbofan too. is that a good idea? is the temp in the house a big deal? i was gonna keep it in our spare room where the door stays closed so its colder in there then the rest of the house
