hello hath

it can be used for parrots or fowls the only thing you have to remmember is that the eggs need to be turned buy hand atleast 3 times a day and never ending up on the same side up 2 nights in a row (i generaly turn them three times a day doing a quarter turn each time

hope this helps

bill

bill have you been succesful with budgie eggs i only ask because we had a talk from someone who had tryed budgie eggs and was not succesfull at all in fact zero eggs hatched and this person had used incubators all her life as she was a fowl breeder

to date i have not yet done a budgie egg but i have done a variety of ather parrot eggs and i would say there wouldent be much difference ine the incubation off the different parrot eggs at the first possable chance i will place some budgie eggs in and let you know the results

as long as it has a thermastat that can get to the desired temp it can be used as both and yes i have used bopth for both brooger and incubator all i do is make o little stand and manualy turn the eggs

regards

Bill

Thanks Bill,

I didn't know you could hatch eggs in a brooder at the correct temperature. I have been looking at the prices of incubators and hoping I would never need to use one because they aren't cheap.

 

By the way - What are those possums on your web site.? They look very cute.
