you have to set the incubator but yeah pretty much put them in, turn it on, and your good, but you need like to put them in a certain substrate that i forgot the name of... someone help me... vermicilitisocitimotitis... or something about like that :D
Do the incubators come with manuals? how much does an average incubator cost?

Re: No incubator?
Ok this is what a hovabator incubator looks like.The first pic is how it looks like on the outside.I plug them in about a month ahead of my expecting any eggs and i make sure the temps are still correct.You have to add a little water in a bottom tray for the humidity and i add just a little water in the containers containing the eggs.I use vermiculite for the eggs to set inside of the containers. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...s/IMG_1389.jpg
Where can i buy vermiculite and what does it look like? Also how much does one of those incubators cost and where can i buy one? THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!!!

Well the hovabators i use are actually sold as incubators for chicken eggs lol.You can buy these same ones sold as reptile incubators just a little higher price.I spent $40 on each one i have(3) and this will be my 3rd year using them.
