mad house Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Just wondering if anyone has used an r c rom mini and what were your thoughts and results After a bad experience with our incy we are thinking of getting something else but we dont want anything to big and it must be fully automatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I've not used it but I have heard a lot of complaints from breeders because they're receiving a lot of calls from people desperately searching for chicks as only one has hatched and it's in need of company. You'd be very very lucky to have a 100% success rate and it leaves the risk of having just the one chick which obviously isn't very fair on the chick. And if your one chick is a boy and you're not in a position to keep boys it becomes a very expensive and pointless exercise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I agree with Griffin How about the Brinsea Mini Advance? thats automatic and takes 6 or 7 eggs, the price tag isnt that different to the RCom mini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I have an Rcom 20 & I also have 2 of the rcom minis. That way I can buy 6 eggs & not have to run the big incubator all the time. I've had success with the 2 minis. Very easy to use. Buy 2 !

ChrisEllis Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I agree with Griffin How about the Brinsea Mini Advance? thats automatic and takes 6 or 7 eggs, the price tag isnt that different to the RCom mini I must say i have told a few people in forums this is a great incubator...its good to look on ebay but make sure you type in auto as there are two version of the brinsea mini incubator.
