Sears RoeBuck FarmMaster Incubator Info Needed

Hi there guys,

I need some help...has anyone got any information on the Sears Roebuck Farm Master Incubators? I know people still buy and use them and I will be getting one myself here very shortly! /img/smilies/smile.png/img/smilies/ya.gif Anywho, the owner of it is telling me that they stepped on the plug so we have to buy a round screw on 2 prong plug to attach to the cord to make sure it works. That's fine and all, but after I hung up hubby is like "well.... what kind of plug, does the voltage matter..?" etc. I mean if worst comes to worst I can call him back and ask ha ha  but I already asked him a ton of questions and he's an older gentleman I'd rather not bug him too much. /img/smilies/smile.png The pictures of the incubator he sent are awesome!!! I think im going to strip the staining on it off somehow and make it look more antique-ish but i'm not sure yet.


He also said it can easily hold 100 eggs, however from what I read online....they can hold several hundred??? /img/smilies/smile.png If he's wrong on 100 and it can hold MORE than that oh boy am I in heaven! However if it can only hold 100 I still want it lol.


VERY cheap price for it i'd say $125 dont ya think?

It's model number 228 and serial number 8 - anyone got any info on this specific one? I know it's prety old (like 70 years old).

Heres the pics:
