Which model of Hovabator?

[silkieluver_07]

I have a 1602N right now, and it is still working great after 10 years. I am looking in the the 1588 Genesis. Is there any pros/cons with it? Or do you prefer a different model of Hovabator?

if you have the 1602 and have good luck with it you will love the 1588, so easy to use!

Thanks Cindy! Does the Genesis hold more eggs than the 1602?

Does anyone else have any opinions? I get to choose what model I want for Christmas.

I've got 3 1588s and I really like them. They hold 41-42 eggs with turner.

I want the 1588 for Christmas Hannah!

So far the 1588 sounds good! Now I have to go see where I want to order it from....

I hope you get your 1588 for Christmas Deb!

I love my Genesis (1588) It's by far the easiest I have.

I use the 1602 as a hatcher and for that its great. (I've ordered a pc fan to put in it. I think that'll make the temps even more uniform) I also just bought a LG with turner from the1much. I have that for an "overflow" bator (I've also got a fan coming for this one)

But the Genesis is definitely the easiest! Go for the auto-turner and you'll be golden.

I've had tremendous luck with Home and Barn Basics. If you use the coupon code byc5 you get 5 percent off....which with the shipping ended up being the cheapest I could find. Great folks and service too!

Me too!

I have some eggs in my current incubator now and a couple under a broody hen. But I am not holding out any hope, after my last failed attempt.

Let me know if you find a good price on one. I will send hubby the link lol. He might just shop on Ebay for one for me though, not sure.
