I have a Hovabator Genesis 1588 (not sure if that number is right) and really like it. It is Styrofoam but I have been getting 80 -90% hatch rates from it. I do have three separate thermometers/hygrometers because I don't think the one that is built in is the best. It measures the temp at the top of the bator instead of at egg level. You may want to ask at the Incubators Anonymous thread. That is all that thread is about.....incubating eggs. Why don't you get this incubator and hatch ALL our eggs, too! LOLAlright so I have decided to keep my easter egg rooster. So now I have a decision to make. What incubator should i get / build. It looks like broody hens are a real gamble so I would rather some consistency. I am really into the whole automated chicken raising so an incubator that I can check once a day or so would be good.
