Would that size Brinsea accomodate goose eggs?
How many?

This is what there website says.
Egg capacity

Quail - 60
Pheasant - 40
Hen - 24
Duck - 20
Goose - 9/12

So, 9 - 12 eggs depending on the size.

Thanks for looking that up!
Makes it even more tempting.

I myself am having this same debate, and am interested to see what everyone thinks when they get their new brinsea incubator in the mail and start hatching. I'm afraid this good price deal might not last long, so I'm definitly considering buying one soon.

I got freaked out about temp and humidity flucations hurting the babies, so I ordered a Oct 20 Advanced with both the temp and humidity digital read out. Temp stays dead on they say (factory calibrated) and it can take the add on later if needed of the humidity control unit.
I'm hoping I can keep the humidity in range since the temp will stay solid.
Freaking out is sort of expensive
or maybe I should change that to say chickens are turning out to be expensive......

I ordered the Eco today. When I downloaded the manual from the website, it said NOT to put in the dishwasher. It says also not emerse the base in liquid. But it certainly will be easy to clean with a disenfectant and rag.

It looks like a very easy to care for bator and cannot wait til it arrives.
