Wally used to, don't know if he still does.
If I remember correctly he had an old frig, thermostat and light bulb.
Worked well when I saw it.

Yes, Mr Ben, I have use incubators in the past: 92F and about 70%+ humidity. Worked excellent.
I prefer to hatch queens in a hive, just my personal preference. Each queen cell is placed in a cage, wether incubator or hive.

I have been around bees a long time, since birth. I am a hobbyist so my answers often reflect this fact. I concentrate on genetics, raise my own queens by wet graft, nicot, with natural or II breeding. I do not sell queens, I will give queens for free but no shipping.
