Hey guys,

I am a looong way away from doing this, but I want to know if I need to keep an eye out for different options.

When we are able to start breeding bp's, I plan on making our own incubator out of a wine chiller, (mini) fridge, etc. I currently have a mini fridge, only a year or so old. Will the fact that we may end up wanting to use it as a fridge again sometime mean we should not use it for an incubator? As far as I know, you dont need to tear the thing apart to use it as an incubator, just taking advantage of the already in-place insulation. With that said, would there be any effects of using the fridge as an incubator that would ruin the fridge for human food/drinks etc?

Also, would you recommend sticking to something small, like a mini fridge (the tiny cube kind), or perhaps go with something a little bigger, such as a small fridge ( not the tiny cube kinds, usually about 3 feet high or so) or a wine chiller to be ready to expand after a few years?

Thanks
