incubator

[blazinreps]

I want to get an incuabator. I have built ones in the past with the traditional aquarium heater and cooler. But now i want one for my button quail eggs. The problum im having is that my aquarium heaters only go to 89f. and quail eggs need 99f. so i was thinking of buying a hovabator but have no idea where to get one. any ideas of how to build an incubator for this temp or where to get one would be great. thanx

using heat tape and a good proportional themostat should work, but i'm no expert on quail eggs.

ya use the same plans but a different heating method.. like heat tape... or us a combo of 2 heating methods... heat tape and aquarium heater

If you want to buy one, try some Farm supplys/co-ops. Port Credit pet Center and the Reptile Wrangler(Barrie) carry Hovabators most of the time.

Keep in mind that bird eggs, unlike reptile eggs, need to be turned regularly.

Well theres a place not to far from me that carry hovabators. But a friend of mine just redid there kitchen and there throwing out there old fridge so i thought maybe ill take it and turn it in to one. I found some thermostats at canadian tire but wasent sure really what i was lookin for. Does anyone have any instructions of how to do this.
