    Default Incubators

    Looking at incubators.
    The only decent ones I have found are for parrots (Brinsea), and start at around $400.
    Anyone know any good brands or dealers?

    Side note:
    Is anyone familiar with the website http://www.babywarm.org/?
    They claim they are a non-profit that donates incubators to rehabilitators.
    They claim to have funded 473 incubators in the last 3 years.
    Apparently you apply, and send a photo of you feeding an animal, and they basically run a GoFund for you.
    And when it reaches $475, they send you an incubator.
    I am seeing a lot of people feeding squirrels in the pictures.

    But, I am suspicious... a couple of the animal pics on their page appear to have been lifted from the internet.

    Several members here have recived their incubators from BabyWarm....I think they are a reputable organization.

    Yes... i searched the board and found a thread about babywarm.
    Even saw the Brinsea incubators they are currently shipping.

    Still.. I am not hurting financially, and am not swamped like some of the NY rehabbers.
    So I won't try to get a donated one.
    So back to my question... anyone know any other affordable brands?

    They are fabulous! I love my Baby Warm incubator. If you set it up, you can also add funds yourself if you want to.
