What is the best incubator?

Hi, I was wondering what incubator is the best for hatching bigger hatches.

I have found Hovabators to work very nicely. I think they hold around 40? I can't remember.

Ok Thanks I will definitely do some research on them!

About how many eggs are you trying to fit?

I was thinking about 50-60 eggs.

Hmm, you might need to go as far as a cabinet incubator for that. Sounds like you're gonna have a lot of fun hatching!

Yeah, I was thinking of maybe building one myself. If I did I would base it off of this. Here's the one I built a few days ago. Or I might get this one.

Electric Incubators aside, May I recommend this egg incubator, does not make use of gas and electricity to warm the eggs and can serve as yoir backup incubator for alternative egg incubation during emergencies such as power outages....
