What are you using?

I took some time, but I got her locked in. 99.7 in the LG now and it doesn't waiver. I'm happy with that have quit fiddling with it....

There is an old Stereo in a cabinet in the shed that isn't used anymore, I think it would make a great Bator if I decided to continue doing this. Plus, it's a piece of furniture, so it could just stay in the living room.
 
I have 2 of the still air LG and they seem to work ok, just fight with it on temp when I have a major temp change outside. Usually it gets hotter, wish it would get cooler instead. I noticed the LG with the fans do a better job at temp holding. I am looking for a fan to put in at least one of mine, or maybe I will just order one from LG. I will let the boyfriend install it though as I will probably ruin the incubator if I do it. Had a junk laptop I gave to someone right before I decided I would try to incubate some eggs. Still kicking myself in the butt for that one!
 
I have a very old GQF 1200 that turns the trays with a crank on top - not automatic - was 3 trays ,but I dropped the bottom tray off of the turner , sat it on the bottom to use as a hatching tray . seldom use more than 50 eggs at a time but it can hold 120/150. usually get 85% or better hatches with my eggs , less with those brought in from elsewhere .
 
I use a homemade one, made from a large pepsi refrigerator from a grocery store.

It can hold 4 turners and we hatch on the very bottom so we don't have to worry about babies falling.
 
I like the Lyons RX2
These will hatch about 90 chickens. We use ours for Quail. Pheasants,Goose,Turkey and Pea Fowl. In 15 years of hatching this is the most accurate system for us. Having said that...These are not cheap. New they are around 800 with shipping. But if you are paying top dollar for hatching eggs and want a good hatch you have to spend a little money. Keep your eyes open on E Bay you may find a good deal on a used one. Chances are if you do... I will be bidding against you.
