Looks just like a hovobator to me! So yea i dont see why not.

 

[syntheticreality]

is it a good choice though and is it better to just buy that or can I build one much cheaper?

 

[Jeremy Letkey]

It will work just fine for leopard gecko eggs.

I do not think that you could build one much cheaper.

$40 is pretty cheap.

The only place I can find cheaper is lllreptiles and your only looking at about a dollar difference but they give you a few goodies to go with it like dell cups and hatchrite or something.

It looks similar to an Hovabator, but not as deep. John is right... LLL Reptile sells Hovabators for less than $50, and they include the deli cups and incubation medium.

lll reptiles is good it come to 49.95 and the also give you 6 deli cups and some vermiculite

i dont like shipping, i'd rather go some place I can pick it up...

let me ask this.

I already have a reptostat 500 (not a rheastat) or whatever it's called. I can buy a real nice size thick cooler from wall-mart for 7 bucks. That's 27 dollars so far i can get flexwatt pretty cheap, right? or would a UTH type heater possibly work?

 

[Jeremy Letkey]

Yes, making your own could work but is it really much cheaper than $40 for one that you know will work????

 

[ataber]

tractor supply might actually have hovabators id go see what your local store has or what they can get you if you dont want to order from the internet.

 

[syntheticreality]

it may not be much cheaper, but I already spent the money on this thermostat

Ya, i love the goodies!!

looks like a nice incubator

most likely the tractor supply one is a little giant.

And you could still use the thermostat to make sure it runs at a correct temp.

I have a little giant and it seems to work just as well as my hovabator. Alot of the tractor supply stores have them on sale right now. I got my LG for 33.00.

 

[FelanMoira]

I'm using the LG right now - on Day 1

I couldn't get 1 chicken egg to hatch in it, but since it's a still air hopefully I'll get leo eggs to hatch!

We got one from our local feed store for our male incubator and it works just as well as a Hovabator.

Marcia, I went to LLL last night to purchase another hovabator, but noticed they no longer have the one without the thermal fan, do you know where else I could find one that's of a good price? Everywhere I've checked theyr'e $50 and over. LLL had there's for $40 ($50 shipped). The only one I seem to be able to find is the thermal air flow.
