r-com king suro 20

[jay1995]

Is that the one with one egg or the one with like 20 eggs?

I put in 18 chicken eggs but I could have put in probably around 24.

I was just curious as to how happy everyone was with their King suro 20 incupators this year.
Thanks, Jamie
I am looking into getting one from poultrysupply.com, unless anyone knows where to get one for cheaper.

Actually the standard RCOM 20 has temp control and humidity monitoring the higher end RCOM 20 (the one for around $600) has the temp control and auto humidity control.

The Suro has both the temp control and auto humidity control and has a really great price. That is why everyone is getting them.

I'm extremely happy with my suro20. Mine are pipping now. It can hold 24 chicken eggs and I'm using an egg carton to hatch 6 bantys. I think the paper egg carton takes up too much room and almost reaches to the humidity pad. Next time I will most like lay them on their sides tho until I can get lower profile egg tray. As far as the water container you can use anything. I'm using one of those cups that has a lid on it with a straw hole that has work out great and holds more water, didn't have to refill during the incubation. Hope I've help out.

I LOVE my r-com incubator. I am currently trying to hatch out Silkie duck eggs in it (which are supposed to be harder to hatch). So far they are developing nicely, so

I have been hatching since I got it (end of August), and it has kept temp and humidity like clock-work. I do not worry about my r-com at all. I also like my brinsea, and would love it as much as the r-com if it had the auto humidity.

I love my King Suro 20. If I decide I need another I would buy one again. Enough of us own them that we can give you tips. For example, be prepared for poorly written directions and check out their website for video how to's.

The flexible plastic dividers do work good. I just put in a mix size of eggs so I decided to take one of my plastic egg trays I used in my cabinet incubator and cut it to snuggly fit (pictured). It securely holds exactly 20 eggs, including very small Polish eggs.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it, it is not that big and takes up little room. I had it on my dresser in my spare bedroom. If you need any help let me know.

My question is about the hatch. If you have it full ... 20 or 24 eggs, whatever the capacity is .... Is there enough room in there for all of them to hatch?
