Here is my home made incubator. After trial and error, i made a fine working one out of a 40 watt lamp, a cardboard box, styrofoam, and lots and lots of duct tape. It isn't the best looking thing ever, but i made it only for the cost of a lightbulb! And it kept the temperature at a nice 99.5 degrees. Perfect! I just have to hope it works.

How is it going with your incubator? One of the tricks I learned, to keep the humidity up, was to keep a clean (new) kitchen sponge in there and periodically add a little water to it to keep it moist.

That's a great tip, thanks! I used a dish towel for humidity.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, none of the eggs hatched, but i think that i could get the incubator to work, just with closer monitoring. It's a learning process!
Thanks for your lovely comment
