Make sure it is stored in the box during off season to help prevent cracks and breakage. As with most things, this incubator will last longer the better care you take of it. ![]() Expect to replace it every couple of years due to wear and tear. It also has a pretty small viewing window, but that is pretty much what you get when you pay less than $100 for an incubator. It is just asking for bacteria growth as it can’t be cleaned with a lot traditional cleaning solvents. There are turners available to add to this unit, but without it can hold about 130 quail eggs or 50 chicken eggs.Īlthough the turbofan does help, this unit still has many of the same problems that the other styrofoam incubators have. This is the main upgrade of this incubator over the 1602. However, this incubator does come with the Turbofan system, making it a circulated air incubator. This incubator still features the wafer thermostat, unlike the 1588 that boasts digital controls. While many are not fans of styrofoam incubators, it is important to recognize that GQF is trying to marry features with affordability.

It also has a read out of the humidity inside the incubator, making it easy to see all your necessary information in one place.

It can hold temps as low as 40 degrees F up to 140 degrees F, making it ideal for all types of egg incubation, both bird and reptile. While this was originally intended as a reptile incubator, it both heats and cools. The temperature was easy to adjust with the touch of a button, either up or down. We started with it half full, and found that we only needed about 4 rows filled to get the humidity that we wanted. The water tray in the bottom provides grooves that you can fill with water to raise your humidity. Although we found that it required a little bit of setup regarding humidity, once we found our sweet spot, it was ready to go. The clear shelves just help give it that little extra something. ![]() With the silver finish and blue accent lights, it is an incubator you wouldn’t be ashamed to sit on your counter and show off to visitors. It also has a large viewing window that lets you see the entire inside of the incubator at any given time with a quick glance.

The ReptiPro 6000 is our favorite incubator!
