You will need...
*a 10 gal (or bigger) container i.e, tub, fish tank, styro cooler, etc.
*a submersible aquarium water heater
*a brick
*a plastic shoebox
*perlite

Set up the incubator...
Put the brick in and fill with water until it "almost" covers the top surface of the brick. Place water heater in and calibrate. The water temp needs to be your desired incubation temp. Be sure the water temp is staying constant you can usepretty much any thermometer.

Set up the egg box...
Fill a plastic shoebox about 1/3 to 1/2 way with perlite. Moisten perlite. It shouldn't be drenched but it should stick to your fingers. Make egg indentations. Make three holes for air exchange in one end of the shoebox (this is easier done before the previous steps).

Ok...
Put eggs in egg box. Put lid on egg box. Put egg box on brick in heated water container. Put lid on heated water container. *It's ok top open the lid on water container to check temps daily. Open egg box to check eggs about once a week. Now try not to go crazy with anticipation.
