Information Sheet: Building an Incubator
You can also download this page as a .pdf file by clicking It's very simple - build a wooden box (with a floor and removable lid about 18" x 18" x 18". Drill 2 holes per side about 3/8" diameter about 1" off the bottom, drill 6 in the lid. These are for air flow. Fix the heater unit to the lid (I use a 150watt F.T.E ceramic element) The best type of thermostat is a Pulse Proportional or you can use a standard on/off type. If you use a light bulb (not recommended) you must use a dimmerstat or Microclimate mini 300). If you would like any more info please contact me
