The Right Location
For a good result, place the incubator into a heated room. There should not be any major room tem -
perature fluctuations inside it. Ideally, the room temperature should be between 17°C and 25°C.
Additionally, there should be a good ventilation in this area, especially if there are multiple incubators
located in this room. There has to be an efficient ventilation, as a natural air supply ensures that the
developing embryos always have fresh oxygen.
Make sure that the incubator is placed on a flat, even surface and is not in direct sunlight. Place it on a
solid surface, which is approx. 80 cm above the floor.
It is recommended to place the incubator far away from heating sources, drafts and windows, to avoid
harmful changes of temperatures. Additionally, the incubator should be placed with the included styro-
foam packaging, which provides protection.
General Information on breeding
1. How do the poultry eggs have to be stored before placing them into the incubator?
Hatching eggs should not be kept longer than ten to twelve days. After that the success rate of hatch-
ing is very low. Store the eggs at a cool temperature (8–15°C) and at a relative air humidity of 75%. In
case the hatching eggs were sent via post, they should rest for at least 24 hours before being placed
in the incubator.
Important: The eggs should be stored lying and need to be rotated halfway around their longitudinal
axis at least once a day.
2. When is the incubator ready?
The incubator should run for at least 24 hours before placing any eggs into it. If possible, let the in-
cubator run for a week without eggs. Thus, you will easily see if all parameters can be adjusted and
work as required. Additionally, you will learn how the functions and the adjustments of the incubator
work during this time. Nothing is more harmful to the eggs than the wrong incubator adjustments. If
everything works accordingly in the testing period, the incubator can be cleaned thoroughly with a suit -
able disinfectant.
The intended humid and warm climate inside the incubator is a good breeding ground for bacteria and
fungi. Not disinfecting the incubator enables the growth of these and poses a threat to the entire
brood. Thus: Before the first breeding and after every new breeding, thoroughly disinfect the in-
cubator.
You need to make sure that the disinfectant is suitable for the incubator material. Otherwise the mater -
ial can be attacked and the hatching process endangered.
