Hi my names Alex I’m from Ireland im new on here and recently started keeping some bantams again. I’m looking for advice on what type of incubator I’d need for maybe 10 to 20 eggs or whatever is recommended I have a lot of space so don’t mind having to get a bigger one if it’s better. What other equipment should I have before hatching aswell
 
I really like my Hovabator. It's a forced air one. I've hatched regular chickens and bantams in it with great success. This is the exact one I have. You can also get an automatic turner for it. I'd get a separate thermometer and hydrometer to double check temp. and humidity. Besides for that, you don't need much else to hatch.

You could always set up your brooder before they hatch. When I have new chicks I make sure there's a heat source, chick starter (I get medicated starter and opt not to vaccinate), a feeder, a water container, and I put electrolytes into their water.

Good luck! :)
