Maxi 24 EX Egg Incubator

This has been worth its weight in gold! We've hatched out so many parrot chicks in this little incubator and just love the maintenance of heat and humidity. Easy to set up and clean. Good customer service. I wish it was a bit larger, but it's been terrific.

I'm new to incubating eggs and this incubator is pretty easy to set up - just follow the instructions. You'll want to make sure that you have the specific temps and humidity level # for the type of eggs you're wanting to hatch (I'm doing turkey eggs). This is all automatic, except when it's time to prep the eggs for hatching. At that time the turning disc will need to be removed and turning function turned off and the hatching mat put in place. The unfortunate thing is that this unit only comes with one hatching mat. This is a nice incubator although a bit spendy, but it is worth it.

This thing has been almost a total joke. First, I received a unit that had been pillaged for it's power supply, Amazon was good to make this right. Secondly, this unit was bought to control humidity. This is the ridiculous part, it doesn't even come close. What it does is allow water to flow uncontrollably all over the place. This is incredibly lame for something that costs this much. Unfortunately, I'm over a waterfall in a barrel as I can't just shut it down with eggs that are halfway mature.

Works exceptionally well. Set it and forget it. Have hatched multiple batches of quail with no issues.

Set Up is a bit confusing. Had to watch a few videos on YouTube to get it right. That took a star off. Spent the extra money for a more accurate unit because hatching and turning goose eggs is almost impossible to stay on schedule. Also, A couple of months from now, bull snakes will be raiding the duck nests and we need a couple of hatches this year. The unit performs just as promised. Temps, humidity, turning intervals are very accurate. Once the pump tubing loop was figured out - as a left hander, I reversed in tibial direction of looping on water pump ( very ingenious design by the way), the unit works perfectly. Highly recommend. Start it a day or two before to make sure you're on target and to allow time to fix errors with the help from videos. The proof will be how successful the hatches are in 15 more days. UPDATE: Hatched out 5 goose eggs successfully (3 were infertile). Duck eggs and chicken eggs should be a breeze to hatch. Once set up, it frees up so much of my time and takes a lot of guess work. I’m new to hatching (goose) eggs but no matter what the breed, keep a sheet of paper to track the days, when to turn of rotating or candle the eggs. Highly recommend. A bit expensive, but very accurate and realize.

So far no issues with incubator. Hatch rates better than old styrofoam style

Excellent incubator, I just started to hatch pheasant eggs, I will keep you updated after 30 days. Comparing this incubator to other ones, as Nature Right 360°, this incubator is the best regarding humidity control and stabilization. Temperature is accurate and very stable. Wide Settings options, great to hatch different size of eggs at same time. Recommend 100%.

This is great for chickens and smaller. I, however, would NOT incubate ducks or anything larger in this, even though it says it can. Its way too small to hatch ducks and has a hard time with handling the humidity. I tried doing ducks and most died because of lack of room. But chickens and guinea fowel work great.

This is a well made incubator. The electronics are very accurate. Only unfortunate part is I couldn't get any support from the manufacturer concerning the availability of larger egg discs.

I was fighting humidity control on a cheap no name incubator which was leading to less than ideal hatch rates. After purchasing this Brinsea there was a noticeable change for the positive. Checking the humidity and temperate control out of the box using a calibrated temperature monitor and hygrometer shows it is highly accurate. I tested the recovery rate of the humidity control and it operates very efficiently given the simplicity of the pump system. This is definitely not the cheapest option out there but the quality in design is evident and the stress free use makes up for it in my case.
