Opinions on this bator?

[RavenStorm]

Hey peoples, I just got myself a rooster and it's been about a month now after the quarentine period and I've checked and all of my girl's eggs have been fertile for a while now and I want to try hatching. This seems like a good deal and I have been researching hatching how-to's for a while, and I just wanted to get all of your opinions on this one:

Hova-Bator Economy Hatching System

Have you used it? What did you think?

I got mine from Randall Burkey Co. Hova Bator 2632N with turner and circulated air for 129.99 plus 9.99 S&H. I think paying the extra 35.00 for circulated air is well worth it.

The genesis 1588 is $193.00 with turner at your site. Not "EVER" having to worry about temp is way worth the extra money. Truly a plug a play incubator. JMHO. And believe me, I am a cheapskate.

just make an incubator, quite easy to make. some in US reported it took US$ 15 to make.

for me, i spend US$ 40 just to buy a hygrometer made in germany.

what a waste of money.

We were planning on jerry-rigging a computer fan in the bator in this one to give it circulated air. Thank goodness that DBF is not only psyched about hatching chicks but is a computer and mechanical whiz as well!
