Ok I was looking on Ebay for a bator.

My kids do have 18 chicks that they picked out at the feed store. They asked if they could hatch some egg and I told them that I would see what I could do. I do know that it is hard work. But if it makes my kids happy then i am willing to give it a try!

I'm incubating my first eggs in a brinsea mini advance. It's not hard work at all. I'm on day seven. The temp has only got as high as 99.6 and maintains 99.5 well. When I take the top off it takes about 45 seconds to get back to temp. I'm going to candle in the next couple days but so far so good.
