Hi all,
I was going to build one, even bought most of the supplies--will probably do so later-I have a feeling I'm going to be addicted!
DBF has OKed the purchase of a bator!
(this is after several weeks of discussions, back and forth!)
I'm looking at the hovabator with fan and turner. At least I think it's a hovabator--
here's the description--
Turbo Fan Incubator (TFI)
The world's best small incubator just got better. The Turbo Fan model circulates the air and makes it easier to maintain constant temperature. New increased lid depth will accommodate larger sized eggs without adding an expansion ring.Now includes sanitary plastic liner and thermometer! 18 1/2" x 18 1/2" x 9 1/4" 110 volt 25 watt. Egg capacity: up to 130 quail, 80 pheasant-chukar, 50 chicken, 40 turkey, 20 goose. (220 volt model available, call for pricing). Snap action wafer/thermostat operates the 25 watt heating element.
TURBO FAN INCUBATOR
Order #TFI
Turbo Fan Incubator with Automatic Turner
Egg capacity: 42 chickens eggs, 108 quail, 110 volts
TURBO FAN INCUBATOR W /AUTO TURN
Order #TFIA
@ $124.50
Is this the one I want?? I'm a newbie to incubation and want to get what will work. They have another for 132.00 w/o the turner that has an electronic thermostat. Is it that much better?? That's a big difference in price. Any opinion on these?
Also, is Stromberg's price the best I can do??
Thanks a bunch~~I've learned so much here!
