    That price was for a large repti-pro, not the hovabator... Those are only like $30-60 on eBay. So should I just go with one of those, or spring for the fancy $140 incubator?

    we made our incubator out of a bar fridge. Any fridge with the outside in decent condition will do. Remove the no longer needed motor and crap, add in a heatmatt or two run on a pulse stat and hey presto. Perfect incubator.
