« on: April 07, 2009, 06:38 »
You may heve read my other post about my inccy being erratic well it has gone wrong so buying another.

Thinking of a Brinsea Octagon 20 auto advance (new out)!

Any recommendations, I need one today as more eggs arriving tomoz.

Thanks

yep I have an Octagon 20, its very good! The other good one is the new Rcom 20. Pand T have got a really good deal on at the mo, something like £150 off the RRP.

Have gone for the Brinsea Octagon 20 Auto ex digital settings etc got a good deal and also I get the VAT back so can't grumble.

Arriving tomorrow with new eggs so lets try again, on Friday.

Have heard some peeping behind a load of wood today so will investigate that one tomorrow I think I have some new hungry faces to feed, little devil I knew she was laying somewhere else - now I know.

Know it's a bit late to offer an opinion but would not recommend the RCOM 20. It's not too bad in that my ducklings have hatched but humidity control is erratic and can be affected by ambient temperature. I think it is overpriced.
Be like a duck. Calm on the surface but always paddling like the dickens underneath.

Thanks for that but would go for a Brinsea every time they are so reliable (except when they go wrong!!!)

I have been advised against a RCOM by a few different breeders as they are a bit unreliable and get bad hatching rates a cheaper version of the Brinsea.

It is ordered and coming tomorrow.
