incubators

[Owens]

Any recommendations on where to order incubators from in Canada?

build one...they are far cheaper and well worth it.

 

[Owens]

have a good link to a thread/site that gives you a good build guide?

Not off the top of my head but if you do a search you should find one. I have home made, nature spirit, and a mr-148. All work great for me

Just make them, wel just need some extra heat tape and we can make a few incubators in an hour, got a list of everything needed.

 

[Owens]

guessing your referring to the styrofoam ones jeremy?

 

[rumbolt]

nah plastic coolers, better quality then the styrofoam ones for consisant heat.

I've heard of people using these to good effect...

The nice thing is that they both warm AND cool so if it gets too warm in your room the temps in the incubator won't rise. I have heard that the thermostat can be off by a few degrees so you'd have to kind of dial it in to see where the actual temps are before putting eggs in it. I don't have one of these myself so I don't know from personal experience. I've got a natures spirit incubator, which I love, but they are kind of large and pricey.

The biggest problem I am having is finding someone to ship to newfoundland, canada lol.
The one in a local petstore at this moment is overpriced imo so dont really want to purchase it.

I created my own and works a treat - got the idea from Kevin McCurly's book - N.E.R.D - it's a great book all about ball pythons
