I built an incubator for 3 eggs in a small wooden box and a 25 watt bulb. I propped the lid open differing amounts until I got the temp right and about 30 days later I had 3 chicks.
I guess you could do the same with several 12 volt light bulbs and a variable power supply.

Look at these, especially the first one.
If not one of these then google "diy variable power supply".

If it's a one off the airing cupboard will work - Keep an eye on them.

Thank you for your answer. I am looking for a circuit to build a variable power supply for a chicken incubator to hatch two dozen eggs.
