The Octagon incubator by Brinsea

Any Breeders used this incubator? How about the new Contact incubator by Brinsea?

Nope don't have one of those, like I mentioned in another thread, I use a Turn-X 7 by Lyon Electric. That one you just mentioned is sure pricey. You mean someone can spend between 4,000 to 5,000 on an incubator?? Yikes, not me! Looks to be much more in depth that what I have but I do fine with my incubators. Is this the one you are referring to?

Thanks for the reply Jan. I too had verry good luck with my turn-X most of the time but I was just hoping to make things just a little bit better. I have conure eggs and amazon eggs and have found they do better at different humidity levels which is difficult to monitor with the turn-x. I really have the most trouble with the conure eggs as they are less tolerant to any fluctuations. I really try to leave them with the parents or foster them but there are problems with that too. Im a perfectionist when it comes to my birds and every baby or egg that is lost is mourned. After all fertile eggs are precious potential to become a beautiful living creature A PARROT! Just the word brings excitement. Sorry... Im getting ahead of myself:O)
