The Moonshiner's Bootleg Incubator Reviews And Discussions

[Canadian Wind]

Welp, the MeeF seems to have crapped out. Thermostat and heater. Thankfully, this was the end of my hatching season and the 11 eggs remaining are in the Maticoopx. Granted, I've been running the thing non-stop since March!

Next year, I'd like to get something that handles more eggs. I'm not very good with electronics, so any recommendations for a reasonably priced small cabinet incubator?

The reasonable part is the most difficult.
Unless of course, it lasts ten years.

Exactly. Basically, I want something that won't take years to pay for itself and is reliable.

Since I live in a trailer, space is also limited thus why I don't want 10 different units that I can't find room for, lol! Although considering how many brooders and grow-out pens/cages I have in here...

You have brooders, grow out pens/cages in your house?

In my TRAILER, yes!

Lets just say this is more of a barn than a house at this point...

As far as the NR360 turn motor rusting, I have taken the bottom off mine, cleaned it and used food-grade silicone grease to lubricate the mechanism and around the shaft to seal out moisture.

This thread?

I set some eggs in this incubator yesterday.
It'd only hold 12 Leghorn eggs.
