Your biggest problem would be if you didn't remove the eggs in time and they stayed in a clump wouldn't be easy stuffing a large clump off eggs in there.

Seriously you are wasting your money buying incubators, you can build them for alot less and they will work better than anything you'll buy.
People always seem scared of incubation, it's not hard or technical.
