Its not real big, probably holds a little more than a dozen eggs or so. I'll try to take some pictures of it....been busy, you know. Hey Folks

I have not yet had a chance to set it up yet, not real sure how it goes together, but I’ll figure it out. Its not real big, probably holds a little more than a dozen eggs or so. I’ll try to take some pictures of it….been busy, you know.

I've seen and studied such an incubator at the Cayuga County Agricultural Museum. Hi Scott,

I've been planning on buying one and it would be interesting to hear how they work. Up to about a year ago they had some for sale in the adds of Small Farmer's Journal. Amish built, for in the $200 range I believe. It's been on my to do list to write them and see if they still sell em. When you fire it up keep us informed.

In fact, I would surely use it to conserve electricity. You have been blessed. I am afraid I would be so delighted to have this too. In fact, I would surely use it to conserve electricity.

You are blessed to have friends like that and they are blessed to know someone like you who values the past and its wisdom and traditions. Things like that shouldn't end up lost in the musty depths of an old barn, or even in a museum, but should be resurrected as pieces of our heritage that we can still make use of. Truly, without a woodstove, what would one do to keep the eggs uniformly warm? If you could post a picture, Scott, I bet I'm not the only person who would love to see your "new" incubator. Blessings to you and your family! P.S. I loved your post on reading with your boys. That should be something they (and you) never grow out of.
