Which incubator to buy?

The Genesis 1588 is a Hovabator but not all the Hovabators are alike. This one you don't have to do much. Its forced air and the temp regulates itself. No constant adjusting of temps needed. I would skip all the other models and stick with a 1588. I just got a turner for mine.

incubate out of 2 hovabators in a house that has no a/c...and it doesnt budge a bit. hatch out in an LG that has to be temped and retemped every day. dont do an LG unless you have time to babysit them.

also, if you have the money (and i'd scrape it up) it's much easier to hatch in a hova that has a fan, better hatch rate then a still air.... and if you're handy, i can tell you how to turn a still air into a forced air for 13.00 which is cheaper then buying one with a fan kit.... and i'd buy a still air to hatch in. my recent experience after hatching in a still air for the last year, and now trying to hatch in one with a fan, is that it's much harder to keep humidity up with a fan, and i'm having to pull chicks out of eggs.

if i'm confusing you, pm me, and i'll explain better.

its easy to build one, the one i built is more relibile than my lg, hatch rate is extremely better than the lg, last time i used it i hatched 13 out of 15 & i have got $30 in it. & it holds about 24 eggs.
