Which Incubator?!?! SUNCOO?

[HenzandHoundzFarm]

I'm looking to hatch some ducklings from my show winning Welsh Harlequin! I've never incubated before and am on a budget. I've found two incubators that look promising:

SUNCOO Digital Egg Incubator Hatcher with Automatic Egg Turning Temperature Control for Chicken, Poultry Hatching for Chickens Ducks Goose Birds Turkey W/LED Display 32Eggs

or the

Anfan 80W Automatic 48 Digital Egg Incubator Hatcher,Egg Turning Temperature Control

They both have 5 stars on AMazon and are an OK price. Does anyone here have experience with these incubators? I haven't seen them in the review section and I'm on a time crunch slightly. If you have a favorite incubator around 100$ let me know! Thanks so much for helping!!

If you don't need to hatch a lot of eggs, you can get one of these.... the 12 egg incubator, I've seen a lady fit 24 in there when the turner is taken out. The other one, you can probably stack them to fit more in them too! Ballin' on a budget, and they work good! You can find them for cheaper on Ebay!

OR..... you can make your own homemade. Go to your local dollar store and get a styrofoam box for $5 or less, grab an incandescent light bulb of about 25-40 watts (or heat emitter bulb) and get a temperature controller. Again, check on ebay for the temperature controller and ceramic heat emitter...... BAM! You're all set!

There are good and bad points to every incubator. How much time do you have to babysit one?

The biggest tip I can give you is to be sure to get independent meters and test them for accuracy. Good thermometers and hygrometers will save your eggs, no matter which incubator you choose. Google ways to verify that your meters are correct, and depend on them, NOT on the incubator's meters.

Reptile thermometers and hygrometers seem to be the most accurate ones to buy off the shelf, and aren't overly expensive. Under 10 bucks for a combo unit.
