which of these homemade incubators

[Urban Chaos]

I'm looking at directions for making an incubator . I would like input on these as far as reliability is concerned. Is there one design that is recommended over the others and why? We are considering doing a science fair project that involves prefab incubators vs homemade.

Thanks in advance,
Victoria

I would go with the plywood or ice chest models for more durability instead of cardboard.

I'm very new at this , I made a homemade one and just put eggs in 6/12/11, so far mine is doing well, it's made out of a styrofoam cooler.

Very easy to put together cost less that 30.00.

I have one made from a coleman ice chest:

So far seems to be working VERY well...
