What is the best 'affordable' smallish (10 egg) incubator ???

[QuilBillie]

tired of waiting for one of my hens to go broody, think I'll try incubating, never done before, what type does someone suggest?? I would like to spend $100 or less. There are SO... many out there I am confused, some have equal positive/negative customer reviews ..... so what do I believe?? I know there are many DIY tutorials, but I'd rather just buy one ready to go, put eggs in it and forget about it till I have cute cuddly chicks. I'm leaning towards THESE.... any suggestions???

I built my own and have about $10 into it and it works great, There are a lot of threads here on building one. Me and my 9 yr old daughter built this one and it was a fun way to spend a Saturday morning together.

I have build my own, but nothing compared to the ease of the Brinsea Eco mini, it holds 9 normal size eggs. I cant wait to use it again this summer. http://www.amazon.com/Brinsea-Mini-...d=1395155973&sr=8-1&keywords=brinsea+mini+eco

I see they went up on the price a bit, I bought it in Januari for $80 off amazon. It holds temperatures steady like a rock, you dont have to keep checking it like a DIY incubator.

I just saw this one on ebay today. looks interesting. Clear bottom so you can see the eggs hatching. Strange but interesting. Price is right and has a spot to put water in without opening.
