Do you want to go pick it out and buy it or could you buy it online?
What kinda money do you have to spend on it?
How many eggs do you want to hatch?

Either or...i would like not to spend a whole lot of money on one and would like to hatch about 30-50 or more but would be happy with hatching atleast one!!!

If you want a cheap bator that will hold 40+ eggs you can go for a LG , I orderd mine from TSC for just 41 bucks and 8 bucks shipping . I have to hand turn and it dosnt have a fan and its reallly touchy about temp till you get it just right.
If you want to spend a bit more moeny for a nother styro type bator lots of people talk about hovabators , seems to me there are pretty expesnsive for stryo bators if you get the ones with fan and turner.
There have been a few sales on Brinesea bators lately where you get one witha fan but no turner for about 99 they are a good quality bator but the ones on sale hold about 20 eggs or so but there pretty simple to use. you stil have to hand turn unless you buy the turner for extra.
I am shure lots of people will have lots of opinons soon

if i decide to get one without a turner, how often are you suppose to turn an egg?

about 3 times a day .
The brinesea one thats onsale or was yesterday for 99 you can get the turner for like 49 so tis about 150 for the whole thing and worth the extra if you have it . just my opinion.
