my guess is most smaller breeders use hovabators and those doing numbers or doing it for a long time build there own.

I would say to deal with a reputable company like LLL or reptile supply and tell them your plans so they can set you up with the right model

I have heard that the Turbo Fan model is notorious for drying out the eggs. (too strong of a fan for such a small box)
I have seen the regular model & it's kind of hard to see inside with the small windows, I would get the "picture window" model.
Also, I have seen several people find larger Styrofoam boxes that the lid of the incubator fits on. This makes the incubator much bigger.
I made my own but I didn't save any money. By the time you but the thermostat, heat source, & materials, You can buy a basic Hovabator. I am as we speak making a much larger one out of an old mini. fridge. So far, it looks like it's going to be great!
I hope that helps
