make your own. I made one out of a medium sized fridge and total cost was roughly $250-300. It will hold up to 15 clutches of eggs and holds temp +- 1 degree which is more than adequate for bp eggs. I set my thermostat at 89 and had 100% hatch rate from fertile eggs. The design was fairly simple and anyone that knows how to use a skill saw and how to do basic wiring can build an incubator that will hatch eggs alot better than a hovabator.
