well with the exception of some aluminum tape and the shelves
(they are being cleaned) it is finished and it only took about
1 1/2 hours here is the incubation station

Yeah, a friend of mine used a fridge and put a bunch of heattape in it. Then found out they are insulated so well, not near as much as first thought is needed,lol.

He even went as far as cutting a hole in the door so he could peek in on tings,lol. It wasn't pretty, but it was functional. :rolleyes:

Very nice, a whole fridge! It is amazing how much heat they hold once they are no longer cooling. I've experienced many a broken fridge that heated up just fine without heat tape. lol. Can't wait to see it full of eggs!

it has worked great i have mantained an 89 degree temp for around 25 days so i would say it works pretty well now i do still need put the medium in a tub to try that out but i think it is gonna be good to go...

well we finally had to move up a notch got tired of cramming rabbits into the freezer on top of the
extra fridge in the garage so we went out and bought a chest freezer and well it just might be big
enough to hold the rabbits we go through every damn month lmao anyways here is the new freezer
the finished incubation station
