    Big enough wine cooler?

    It will be a year or so until I have any clutches of eggs, but I found an 8 bottle wine cooler on CL in my town for $20. When I begin breeding, I will likely only have two or so clutches but I was wondering if it was too small. When I start producing more clutches per season, I'll invest in a larger unit, but I thought this should work for now.

    I think you could make it work for possibly two it seems like air circulation would be a problem trying to install a fan in that little thing with water bottles to keep consistent temps may be a little tough. I think the easiest method would be a cooler builds.

    i had the same thought when i bought MY wine cooler off CL. it doesnt fit the 6 qt shoe boxes most people use, so i had to find a substitue.
    it works, but one of my girls just laid 5 eggs, and they pretty much fill up the whole tub. but it fits 3!

    I would hold off and keep searching craigslist. I found a working Avion cooler that is the standard mini fridge size, about 3 feet tall, 2 feet wide, and 2 feet deep. Will hold six 6 quart tubs. Mine is still working as a fridge and I got it for 30 bucks. I would say be patient and something will pop up. Search every day and try multiple different keywords. Good luck with the search! Keep us posted if you find something you like.

    I just did a quick search for OKC area. I would make low offers on this one before getting that one you posted... the one below would maybe hold 3 tubs, but the air circulation looks like it would be a bit better... Anyways, keep us posted and good luck again!!
