FYI - dblrsupply (out of FL) has a great comprehensive incubator package available on ebay in case anyone is looking for a good deal on an incubator. (I ordered mine yesterday!) Note: this package will allow you to incubate anything from small tropical birds (and parrots) to quail, chickens, ducks, geese and peafowl.
The package contains the following: A GQF Model 2362n Turbofan Incubator with clear plastic liner A GQF Model 1602n Still Air Incubator also with a clear plastic liner A GQF 1610 Automatic Egg Turner (standard rack - up to 42 poultry or duck eggs at a time) An ADDITIONAL set of Egg Racks (up to 120 quail sized eggs at a time) A GQF Model 1614 Goose Egg Turner (up to 16 Goose eggs at a time) A Copy Of Janet Stromberg's Book: " A Guide To Better Hatching" Two Hatching Thermometers
NOTE: this package has TWO incubators - so that you can keep incubating eggs continuously if needed. Just move those eggs on their 18th day to the second still air incubator.
The only thing it doesn't have included is a hygrometer for monitoring humidity.
The cost = $209.00 plus shipping
While this is my first purchase from this company, they have a great reputation and seem to have the best prices on Hova-baters right now.
What a great thing to be getting, and I hope you love it! I can't wait for "chick season" around here. I'm not incubating any, but I just love spring for the little ones it brings. Enjoy!!!
