suggest me best incubitor

Time will tell, like growing dual purpose birds, I can give the pullets to whoever keeps me supplied with eggs, and I can process the cockerels.
The ones I raised were free ranging for a while and I didn’t put the feed to them like I would if I wanted to grow them out fast.

That sounds like a solid practical approach. Letting time do its thing and using them both ways makes a lot of sense.

I can tell you to avoid the Incuview Pro All-in-One. I had a total fail with mostly developed eggs. Customer service was great, and they sent me a replacement with an external thermometer/hygrometer attachment. The temperature and humidity readings just wouldn't stay consistent. The reading for number of days to go was inaccurate, and the egg turner didn't work as it should. I sent the replacement back and haven't purchased anything else. Seems the ones with the best reviews are out of my price range.

That is really good to know thanks for sharing your experience. A full fail with developed eggs is brutal especially when consistency is the issue.

I started with the NR360 and liked it. But then I got into incubating more silkie eggs so found a Brinsea Ovation 56EX Automated. That "automated" means auto humidity. I never went back and now own three of those. They are expensive but more like a "set it and forget" it type of incubator.

The most important thing though no matter which one you get you should get a hygrometer/thermometer to double check the settings. Not one of my incubators was ever spot on, and a couple did change slightly months later. Many of us here use a Govee brand from Amazon, but there are many brands much less expensive too. Just check to make sure they've got good ratings so they will be accurate.

That is great advice auto humidity is a game changer. And 100% agree on using a separate hygrometer/thermometer to double-check, no matter the incubator.
