Plus, GQF is an American company that has been in business for 50+ years, so it’s a name you can trust. You can find other incubator models for less, but they’re made in China by no-name companies and just aren’t reliable enough.

Automatic Egg Turner with Egg Racks
Included with purchase, we highly recommend this egg-cessory, even though it slightly diminishes the egg capacity of this incubator. The reason: between day 3 and 18 of the 21-day incubation cycle, eggs must be turned several times a day. The auto-turner not only will prevent you from having to do that by hand, but also improves hatch rates: the more an incubator is opened, the more likely you experience humidity and heat losses, and, ultimately, a drop in your hatch rate.
- Turner holds six egg racks, included with purchase
- Each universal egg rack holds any size egg, from a tiny partridge up to extra-large duck eggs
- Typical chicken egg capacity using Egg Racks: 41-42 eggs.
- Quail Egg Racks are also included, and accommodate around 120 quail eggs.
- Can be used with any Hova-Bator incubator
Dimensions: 15” x 15” x 3”
