Which Incubator?

[yoie]

Ok, I have narrowed it down to two incubators, I can get one for my bday

, the Octagon 20 ECO w/ Auto Turner Incubator or Top Hatch Incubator w/ Auto Turner (Circulated Air). They are both within my price range and have the auto turn and they both hold a nice amount of eggs. I have not had an incubator before and would like to here everyones pros and cons on these models to help with my decision

I would go with Brinsea. Great customer service, easy to use, easy to clean.

Brinsea, 100%

I'm guessing Brinsea is the way to go. Why not the Top Hatch?

 

[CatDaddyAlbert]

I sure like the Brinsea and the customer service level.

i haven't heard anything bad about the newer top-hatch incubators,,,, but i do know that they need a little more insulation,,, so you have to pin sweatshirts and pillows to the sides of the incubator,,,, and i do know that a top hatch holds a lot more eggs too,,,, but i have heard great things about the brinsea incubators

i bought one of the Octagon 20 ECO with auto turner after using homemade incubators my entire life... had a good hatch with shipped eggs.. so I'm going back for a second one!
I love the fact that it holds a constant temp and humidity.. and that auto turner has me spoiled!
