I used an incubator for years until we moved to a new house. One of the most exciting is quails which hatch into the most amazing little things about 4 times as big as the egg! I even incubated some turkey eggs - never again, I could write a short story about killing them for Christmas!

Forget expensive brooders afterwards, I used a plastic storage box with an Ikea clip on light.

I gave the incubator away in 2001Be. (Before eBay)! :'(

OOPS! Just bought an infra red poulty light before I saw your reply Allabout  ::)

Never mind! Handy hint about the IKEA storage box (of which I have many!) Thanks  :)

I like quails too, but it takes FAR too many eggs to make an ommelette  ;D
