I've got my first breeding season underway. Now that I'm getting regular locks from my adult girls, I need to start preparing my incubator and getting the bugs worked out before eggs come. If everything goes according to plan, I'll get 3 clutches this year. From what I've been told, a Hovabator is too small, so I'm looking for something bigger that will grow with my collection for the next few years. I'm hoping to be up to at least 5 clutches in 2010 and who knows how many beyond that? I'm thinking about going the ice chest/cooler route as opposed to a small fridge, because I don't have one of those handy. If I'm going to go out and buy something, an ice chest is probably more economical. I've been told that there are lots of good plans online for building them, but I haven't found many through my google searches. If anyone has a link to a good plan or diagram, I'd really appreciate the chance to take a look. Thanks.

hovabators are great for a couple cluches when you buy them from the store they are not big how ever if you go to the local pet store that has fish ask if they have a spare fish box the square one should be teh same size but alot deeper making it possible to have 1-4 clutches depending on size you can also get there long box and use cardboard styrafoam or wood to block the ends and put the hovabator top in the middle this will allow more clutches
