LLL Reptile Special Incubation Kit

Stumbled across this and wondered if it's really as good of a deal as it seems. Any opinions or experiences?

That's a 1602 hovabator which runs $45 by itself. I've never used that brand of incubator or hatching medium myself so I'll leave others to comment on their usefulness. Those deli cups are tiny, basically useless for BP eggs. I guess they'd work if you want to split clutches into a couple eggs per container but, even then, you might not have enough headspace with your substrate too.

Also, i think if you want to be economical but not sacrifice in the thermostat department you should consider the Reptibator by ZooMed. The hovabator has a coiled thermostat which is suspect, and idk if it is a proportional thermostat or not. The Reptibator has a tried and tested built in proportional thermostat. That hatchrite medium is not too great either for holding moisture and humidity.
