Brinsea has compact, user-friendly models with mostly intelligent design choices. However, they are priced to match. Personally, I recommend to anyone with a few tools lying around that building one is better, cheaper, and more fun. The electronics are simple and can be copied from YouTube videos if, like me, you aren't blessed on the left side of your brain.
I will definitely look into that incubator!Hi! I breed and sell Silkies and my favorite incubator is the farmers innovators 4250. It can hold up to 40 eggs, has the egg turner in place and there's very little to do on my part. I have found one of the best methods to hatching, through trial and error, is to keep the temperature at 99.5 degrees and 40-45% humidity the entire way through. I know almost everywhere you look will say to raise the humidity on the last few days but believe me, I've tried and it doesn't work. It only kills the chick. However, you may just need to see what method works best for you because depending on where you live, temperature and humidity where you are may affect things differently where I am. Hopefully this helps!
Ive looked at the brinsea and i like a few of the models.
Ill look into this one to!
As long as you find a method that works is all that matters. I believe you can find that incubator on Amazon or even Tractor Supply.
Don't copy those videos then.
My last hatch was 6 out of 7. This hatch all were developing i candled 2 last night as im impatient and our power had went out a few days ago for over a hour. And one was developing one had started but doesnt seem to be developing any more.Don't copy those videos then.
Personally I have hatch rates in the high 90s when I use my own eggs. Shipped eggs are of course a different story.
