Hey guys. Kinda random but I was lucky enough to score this old wood cabinet incubator. Someone had tore all the electrical etc stuff out before I got it. Looking to see if anyone happens to have info on it and/ or know what I need to make it work again!

Thanks!!

Does it have a brand name on it somewhere? I'm assuming you're going to have to purchase a new heater and fan, and then optional light, and humidity system or hose for it. I'm not sure how that one turned eggs but if it did, they you probably need that too.

You could get an idea how to do this by looking at some of the DYI incubators folks have built. I'd scroll through this forum and look for those who built cabinet incubators. The principle should be the same since you're basically starting from scratch but at least you have the cabinet and the egg trays. Good luck!!
