wow! That's interesting! I may just do that, but not at the moment. I don't want more bators until we have enough room for all the chickens!

You can go to Family Dollar/General and get a picture frame for $1 and use that as your window...Also, a roll of hardware cloth is pretty expensive. I got some at a local mom-n-pop hardware store, they sokd it in rolls or per square foot. Try to find something like that, unless you have use for a whole roll!

You find this thread yet, ginbart? LOL

*****UPDATE****** I am now working on the turner!

Using someone's idea(not sure who) I am making it from a wooden box thingy and I am gonna screw a nail to a pole under it isoon and then make it so the ends of the pole stick out through the sides of the bator, that way I can just turn those and it will turn the box!

Good luck making your bator. I wasn't brave enough to try and make one!!!

Yes I did and I was talking about # 13 and # 15 post. That's what I was confuseds about. Thanks.

You might also try your local fish store, such as petland, or petsmart. They get some really nice coolers when fish arrive, and I left with 3 of them at no charge. These are simular to the LG but a little larger, would be great for incubators, and the price is perfect.
