- A while ago i purchased a egg incubator and it really didn't work very well. i knew i could make something much much better for a very small cost (about £50) The capacity is about 25-30 eggs and i could add another tray driven off the same motor.
Enjoy the video

Lad the attention to detail is just stunning. Honestly one of the best craftsmanship channels on TH-cam glad everything going good for you Kris 👍
The blue light makes it look like you're incubating velociraptors in some sort of Jurassic Park type lab.
Next video, some sort of dinochick hatched
Guess why I call my neighbour's chickens our "pack of velociraptors"... 🐓🦖😆
Velosochickns and #9!! 😆
Another heirloom made...it'll be usable for donkeys years. Beautifully done as per Kris. 🤗🥳
PS. now attach Classic FM audio to sooth them. 🥰😂
🇬🇧 Has to be Mozart. Warm colours. Blue/green look creepy.
They wont want to hatch out. Too palacial.
Wow I’ve been watching since you first started with and empty piece of land, you my friend are a very determined and talented young man.
FOR SURE, MICK FROM UK

This is the Rolls Royce of incubators !!!
You should have a TV show, this was so much better than most shows on the Discovery channel, great work, i like this way of filming too, just the odd input from you, great job
A very nice build there Kris, I love the addition of the candler at the side. The wood from those old sleepers, wow, that jarrah looks so good when waxed up. Looking forward to seeing the results of your hard labour when they hatch.
Best eco friendly, home building, woodworking, tech show on TH-cam...keep up the good work and enjoy the lifestyle matey...double thumbs up on the video!
Also, it’s so good seeing you use all the things you’ve struggled to build and make. The workshop the workbench the power for the tools all there by skill and sweat - now there is scope for real craftsmanship on a smaller scale.
I love the calmness of your videos, you tell us what we need to know, no stupid music usually, you have a very practical way of doing things.
The lime wash on the walls certainly makes the room much brighter. Your project shows that things can be highly functional and still be very well made and quite beautiful. Thank you for that reminder!
When your incubator has better RGB than my PC
What a beautiful bit of workmanship. Love that sleeper wood. Should never need another one of those in your life time maybe new wire on occasion.
My dog once sniffed out a pheasants nest with eggs in that we put in a incubator and had 6 that hatched but they were completely wild so they got released, love the lights really cool build!
Man this is "eggcellent"... Cheers!
LOL,LOL, UK
It had to be done ahahaha
This video was very eggucational 😁😆😆😆😛
love the darker sections of grain through the hatching drawer, another fine piece of work kris! look forward to seeing the first batch! feelin the raver chicken light too
Stunning camera work for this one! Also... wow, I want one. You, sir... are a clever sod. I laughed when I saw the toilet seat - although I saw the egg shaped window first so I think you could have got away with it! And my vote is on the green light cos Green things make me happy ☺️😉
I had a good laugh over the egg shape and then yes it hit me it looked like a toilet seat. I would have left it LOL All around a really nice job. But you are really a great craftsman. I always enjoy your channel. Now to see some chicks
Just Brilliant;... A joy to watch from start to completion;...
Just stumbled on your videos and thoroughly enjoying catching up on your journey. Love the beautiful woodwork you do.
Looked like a langstroth deep hive body up until 6:55. That's better than any incubator I've seen. Very nice.
By far the best night club for hatching chickens I have ever seen and it is not event closed during coronavirus...
Top draw crafting with so much attention to detail.Simply stunning Kris!
not just an incubator but a priceless furniture.
Another project to put on your sales production list Kris bloody marvellous
Your amazing nothing stops you turning your hands to anything.
I'm in awe of your craftsmanship, amazing work!
Awesome job Kris, I really love the kind of steam punky feel your handmade stuff has. In a world where everything's made to be cheap and disposable, it must make you feel good to have the ability to produce custom one off items that will either last a life time or you can easily repair yourself.
That’s a very classy incubator, it’s beautiful - everything you make is!
Unbelievably beautiful. A true craftsman at work. Well done!
Your knowledge and your woodworking skills are fabulous. Beautiful cabinet
Brilliant piece of craftsmanship. Well done
Brilliant, be nice to see how you get on with incubating eggs. If it’s a good success rate you could make and sell these. Controlling the humidity and having a consistent heat is hard.
Be good if you could top up the water without opening it, to help temperature and humidity fluctuations.
Wood work is top notch.
the egg hatcher is beautiful the detail is brilliant thanks for sharing chris xxx debbie xxxx
Wow you have mad skills!!! You made it look so easy and I love the dark purple colors..i can't wait to see these chickens by born!!!!
I haven't completed the video yet...but had to jump on and say I loved the genius of the egg shaped window! I don't think it looked like a toilet seat at all, especially in the context of an egg incubator! I loved it. Wish you'd stuck with it...
Finished watching now... beautiful...I want this masterpiece! (Still wish it had the egg shaped window tho...lol)
Color #2 btw...
1 and 12. Beautifully designed and perfectly executed. I really enjoyed the project. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe my friend.
Colors 9 and 1. Such a beautiful job done!!!😊🐥🐥🐥
Carpentry work is amazing Kris, you are quickly becoming a jack of all trades. You should sell your design plans!. I like light #1. Have a great week.
The egg lighter killed me.

Beautiful work and difficult. True, it would be more difficult to build a mother chicken, who would sit on them :)
An absolute work of art! You could sell those for a fortune.
Everything you make is off the scale Kris....you're amazballs!!! Xxx
3 & 12 i reckon mate. Grouse job on that. Puts store bought to shame :). Cheers for sharing.
Workshop looking amazing Kris. You seem well set up to handle this sort of project and it shows, nicely done. J
Another cracking job, your hatchability just went up to 85 -90%. I like number two for the light colour. all the best.
Keep the lights on 10 :D
Nice work Kris!
Brilliant and beautiful! Pampered chicks! Light color 1 is quite pleasant.
My word! I have yet to see anyone as creative as you. I wish I could purchase one of your incubators. Sadly, being here in the 🇺🇸 it makes that a bit difficult. My chicks are nearly full grown. I would like to one day hatch a brood of my own. Someday perhaps.
With the woodworking you invested in this, you should definitely consider opting for heat tape, using few 120 mm computer fans to circulate the air inside.
Dude, your shop is awesome!
Your work is amazing Kris! I like color # 1 and 12.
Outstanding craftmanship. The only thing I would have done differently would be to install the control box on the right side. For convenience sake. I'm right handed. Besides the door handle is on the right. Having the handle and the control box close together would make things easier. I need to make one too. Great viewing. I enjoyed watching you. Thank you for doing the video.
I liked 2 and 3. Both were warm looking without appearing alien or artificial.
Wow. Mighty attention to detail. Twelvemighty!!!
Great work Chris. Just one thing (from my arm chair....)
I would have put the light switch (you have on the side) on the front of that side box (just below the two indicators).
To save it getting knocked off, or bent, when the device was stored, whilst not in use.
I agree, It was just to tight to get it in, there is alot more switch on the back than there is on the front. The bit that sticks out is only small but the switch itself is quite chunky and was a pain to get in there. Also the side panel wood is only 10mm so the switch can get through the wood and screw on. The front face wood is 20mm thick and the switch would not fit in there without modification. I think a good solution would be a flat push switch on the side. But i already had the toggle switch so i just used it.
The egg shape toilette seat comment gave me an actual belly laugh.
Lol, I would have thought you were building an old fashioned loo - good choice going with oval instead of toilet/egg-shaped. Although - when you upgrade your Outhouse, you now know how to make a good-looking toilet. Really nice joint work with the table saw jig.
That’s eggzackly what you need. 🥚
It’s unbelievable how nice the wood is that’s being run over by trains everyday.
Forgot to add. Colour #1.
Beautiful, I vote for number 4
Excellent! Colour 2 has my vote.
you do beautiful work. So beautiful I would show it off in my home!!! Amazing!!
Beautiful work. The things that you make are unbelievable.
Absolutely beautiful! 2 by the way for the light colour.
You might try a controller that controls humidity, using a hygrostat. We use one at work made by Omega Enhineering, model MFR012. They work quite well, and are relatively inexpensive.
Love the dovetail(?) rabbit(?) (Joinery fingers) jig table saw sled
I think colour 1 (red) looks nice ... warm and cozy ;-)
No. 3 looks the best to me.
You are one extreemly talented, inteligent and motivated craftsman my friend. Keep up the fantastic work. Pay no attention to the armchair idiots...
number 12 red one makes it look warm
Stellar job man 👏
I'm also a carpenter and of course the thought to build my next incubator instead of buying another one definitely crossed my mind....
I think this video just made my mind up lol I'm doing it!!!! 🤪
This was such an exciting one. I LOVE hatching birds and just hatched out my latest quail. Tho I'm simply using an old styrofoam incubator I've had for years. however I've made my own. In fact as a child (I was home schooled with a tutor) I did a 'report experiment' when I was about 10 by taking a 10 gal aquarium, some tin foil, 100 w bulb and hand turning to make my first incubator. It was really an excuse to get my parents to allow me to have chickens! And since then, I've always managed to keep and hatch birds, currently quite a few chickens and now my quail. Hoping this Spring 21 to do some pheasant and ONE day peacocks (those simply as a vanity project, as I rather like the idea of a pair of peafowl strutting about my land though not sure if they could outwit the coyote and fox. I have to keep my birds in large runs as we have SO many predators, but I've heard that peacocks, when full grown, are pretty good, as they can fly and roost up in trees.
This is such a beautiful piece of furniture as well as an amazing bit of kit that gives you more wonderful birds! Love it.
be following and watching since you filmed for craig love the videos and content over the years and to see how you have progressed is amazing great job,living the best life hats off to you kris and you are very knowledgeable great stuff
So pleased with that mate. Well done again mate
I like the red color of light 👍🏻
Very nice looking incubator
Superb skills, well done Kris really enjoyed the video. I quite liked them all but no 11 was my favourite.
Fantastic video Kris, endless talent, your joinery and end product looks 👌. Colour No.8
Look forward to your up and coming projects 👍
Fine craftsmanship!
12 looked amazing!
Color number 10 for me please kris.
Well done proper job that
Master craftsmen! Well done!
Amazing job. Your attention to detail is awesome. What kind of wood is that, it’s beautiful!🇨🇦
Really nice pieve of work, hope it works well
Nice job Chris. I still have one of those gel filled units that controlled the temp with the none electric version.
Nice idea with the light id just mix it up depending on how you feel they all look quite good
Please let us know if this works any better than the old one and share the progress of hatching. I'd be appreciating. Great work, keep it up.
i just built a trailer version in 15 mins. Thanks! I use an arduino with an averaged reading controllled temp
I wanted to say I like number 1 and I like number 2. But I might have to rephrase that. The orange is nice in combination with the color of the egg-light you got there.
The red color on the bulb was the best atleast i think so :)
Number 2 I think is best, and another great video
I'm wondering about oxygen. Since the box looks well sealed. Is fresh air needed at some point?
I looked it up and it does need fresh air. 7000 pores in the egg shell allows the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen.
Class as always mate you are a talented bloke
I tend to think one is the best
Hey Kris. Only just caught up mate what a build that is! Properly epic I love the stepper motor egg roller! Fantastic!
Just as Clapton thought about burning his Stratocaster after seeing Jimi Hendrix play for the first time, I'm getting ready to load my table saw in the back of my truck and take it down to the dump.
Ma Sha Allah your shop is beautiful
I like the blue of #7.
Nice incubator, but you should put something solid under the hatching tray so that all of the hatching debris doesn't fall through all over the eggs below and the heating elements, water, and fan below that. Can make a BIG MESS!
Nice work with the incubator. Are you able to lower the sound volume at the low frequency range when you edit your videos. I watch my youtube videos from TV with home theater system and when you move the wooden peaces on the table in the video the sound level from subwoofer is high in my opinion.
Bautiful fuild! - I was just concerned about getting epoxy on the fingers, i've been told it's no good and you can eventually get epoxy allergies, so i'm being very caution myself to not get it on the skin.
Definitely number 9 Kris. Good job! Did it work well at the end?
