Default Hovabator Incubator

We have 4 Hovabators left in stock, they have been reduced so grab them quick, once they are gone we will not be re stocking these;

Why not re-stocking them ? They are the best incubators aren't they?

Brinsea and Jaeger are way superior imo , but price is also higher.

There are many reason's (in my opinion ) , first build quality, you get what you pay for , jaegar have a night setting so you get a drop in temp's at night just like you would in nature , they also keep a better stable temp because they use a pulse stat instead of a on off stat which allow's for the temps to rise and fall all the time .
Humidity is also easy to keep stable and i also like the see through lids which makes them easy to keep your eye on whats going on without lifting the lid .
In the jaegar they also hold 4 times the amout of eggs .

Thanks for that Chris, very interesting. I have a herp nursery 2 & then brought a hovabator as I had quite a few eggs laid all within short period & couldnt fit them in the Herp!
