    I used the simple 3 egg R-comm, yes the cheap one :) I however puchased many of them. I only used one 3 egg incubator per pair, and kept it just for that pair, means I didn't mix them up.

    Settings are easy and will provide humidity and egg turning capability.

    No need for different sizing of the eggs, macaw eggs fit just fine with standard egg cradle.

    Stops two days before hatch, can also monitor for pipping through the plastic see thru lid.

    When pip I move them into a Avey chick chalet II with humidfier attachment for hatching and reset the rotation as each egg hatched at intervals.

    Remember to get the disenfectant Brensea and candler, they are very cheap and effective.
