    What incubator would you recommend?

    Its going to be a while(at least a year) before I start breeding, but I've been looking at different incubators and was wondering what was the widely used brand and model

    Re: What incubator would you recommend?

    I've looked into how to convert a glass door freezer into an incubator, but it honestly seems way out of my league.
    Let me rephrase that, what commercial incubator would you recommend?

    I'm also interested. I plan on purchasing from one of these two sources most likely:

    http://www.nsreptiles.com/incubator.html

    http://www.hotboxincubators.com/

    I'd love to hear more about them or other incubators, though.

    Re: What incubator would you recommend?

    I did a DIY incubator out of a chest cooler. It's VERY easy to do and I have minimal building experience and it works perfectly!. However, I'll be upgrading my incubator to a hot box incubator in the next couple of years.

    I felt the same way lol. I got the Natures Spirit one and I'm very happy with it. I'm running it off a Herpstat and it's been great, seems to only be drawing 9% power to stay at temperature (with 5 eggs in right now) and was completely plug-n-play.
