I am wanting an incubator but don't know what a good one is I just want to hatch a few eggs but I need one with the auto Turner because I am gone a lot during day and night for work any help is appreciated
 
Brinsea brand is one of the best, believe their Mini holds 7 eggs (I think), but it is pricey... look for it on the brinsea website... or I recommend the Genesis 1588 Hovabator with turner (holds 41 eggs) from incubatorwarehouse.com, cost is around $200 for the 'bator, turner and shipping... good luck and hope this helps! :)

Xs 2 with Brinsea being the best if you can afford to put out the money. I will warn from going too small though because if you've never hatched before and you start you'll find it very addictive. Buy a bigger one and you don't have to use all the space but it's there if you want it. Buy a smaller one and you're limited if you do change your mind. The Brinsea line is a set them and forget them incubator. Best for the busy person. They usually have rock steady temps and you can even go with a humidity pump (again costly) if you so choose.

Do not go with the cheap little giant incubators (especially the newer ones) if you are not going to be home to watch them. They are tempermental and known for heat spikes.

I agree if you are going to go cheaper and styrofoam go with the Hovabator. The 1588 has a nice viewing window and Hovabators have much better reviews than the rest of the styrobators. You can actually get them through ebay, brand new w/fan and turner for just over $100. (I have a couple different suppliers on my watch list....lol I think I am going to be switching to them.)
