Which Incubator?

[HermannChameleon]

Hi, I currently have a Juragon Pro incubator for my tortoises but have decided to get a different type for my ambilobe panther chameleon eggs for when we are ready to breed and wanted your opinions on which one to get. I do not want to build my own at least until I move out into my own home and cannot do the closet option as I'm from the UK where temps are like minus 3 degrees celsius at the moment! I don't want to go too cheap if it isn't going to do the job and not too expensive but don't mind paying a fair price if it is worth it!

I have been looking at the Hobby Reptibreeder, however, can only find a couple of German vids of this on youtube and no English reviews I know German products are usually built extremely well. Also have been looking at the Zoomed Reptibator which I have seen a lot of good and an equal amount of bad reviews on.

Does anybody have any experience with either of these as nearly every incubator reviews have good and bad ones. Or have any of you used the Juragon Pro for chameleons? I found it to be very good for my tortoises even though it does have a small fan inside and people say you shouldn't use an incubator with a fan for tortoise eggs but they hatched ok and were very healthy. This is why I am looking at still air incubators for them to do a test between the two. Would the fan issue be similar for chameleons?

I decided to buy the Hobby Reptibreeder as spoke to an extremely helpful guy at www.888reptiles.co.uk who sells both this one and the more expensive Zoomed Reptibator and he recommended the Hobby Reptibreeder as he has used this in the past and is apparently very accurate. From my past experience with German made products I decided to give it a shot.

I will do a review on both the Hobby Reptibreeder and the Juragon Pro incubator in the future hatching both tortoises and ambilobe panther chameleons in both.
