Borotto® Lumia 16 Egg Incubator
New! Professional incubator performance in a small machine. This 16 chicken egg capacity incubator automatically monitors and adjusts heat and turns the eggs for you! Remove eggs from the turning cradles to use the unit as a hatcher.
The Borotto® Lumia 16 Incubator with Humidity Pump (Item #540255 below) draws water from an external source, such as a 2 liter bottle, to maintain proper humidity.

Hatching Tips
Do not incubate eggs dirty with fecal material, as during incubation the temperature and humidity will lead to the establishment of bacterial flora. This can contaminate all the eggs, causing infections to the embryos and resulting in premature death during hatching.
Choose eggs of normal shape (they must not be elongated, spherical, undulated or with any other malformation).

This has been a nice little incubator. I love the fact that you can watch the little ones hatch and see everything. The turner works beautifully and it holds a constant temperature.
The one I received is 2 degrees lower than what the digital readout says verified by 2 other thermometers placed in the incubator. So make sure you test it before adding eggs for hatching.
