Where can I find a quality/ reliable hyrgometer?

[SDpeafowl]

This is my first post on this forum and I have already gotten some useful information.
I ordered the Brinsea Eco 20 the other day. I need a hyrgometer, where can I find one and is there a certain brand that is the best?
Also I will be incubating peafowl eggs does anyone know what the humidity should be during incubation period and during the hatching time?
I have read nothing but good comments about the Eco 20 so hopefully I have a good hatch rate with it.
Thanks

There are MANY different ones available. The lowest priced that I have found are at WalMart. Some of the better ones, will, no doubt, be mentioned by other folks.

i got mine on e bay. it was around 10-15$. not too bad and seems to be very reliable. i would think walmart or target or maybe the feed store would have some too.

Here is the one I got for my Mini Advance because I wanted a small one. I checked the calibration and it was within 1%. The case is brass and the face is glass. It's well-made for such a low price. I like mine. You can't beat the price.

Im new to hatching and we just put our eggs in the homemade inc 3 hours ago, so dont take my word on it being good, but I like it, and It might be clearanced there tooo:^}

You might want to look into the hygrometers for cigar humidors. I suspect they might be more accurate than the weather station types.

I use the cheapest walmart ones, they are white and around $7-$8 they have been the most reliable for humidity and easy to use (I use them in my cabinets even) its not a great thermometer though.

I tried their "fancy" $16 one and ended up returning it because it was completely inaccurate. Be sure to test whatever you get in case you get a dud.

Would this one work? I found it on ebay.
