I'm looking into getting a cabinet Incubator, new or used.
I've been looking at both the Sportsman 1502 and at the Dickey's model.
I like them both and the only thing that's keeping me from buying one now is not knowing if one is better etc.
I've looked at them online and have seen a few used ones for sale too. My question to anyone that has one or both what you think.
Hows your hatch rate, are they easy to clean, how much do the use in electric, will it pay for its self? I have enough hens to set lots of eggs. I would sale the chicks as st run day olds, and some would be sexed. And some I would keep and sale later as started pullets.
My husband has asked me if it would be worth it to get one it was his idea, and I would love to have one as we all know how hatching can be. Who has the best price on them online?
Any information that anyone can give would be great.
Thanks
Edited to add: I got a used sportsman type it works great. My first hatch paid for it.
All I need now is a hatcher.
