Hygiene
Cleanliness and hygiene are essential for a high hatching ratio. A poor hygiene is often the reason for
the chicks´ death within the first 10 days after hatching. Always put clean eggs into the device.
Contaminated eggs are potential carriers of deseases which thrive particularly in warm and humid
environment. If you put dirty eggs into the device, it is recommended to clean them in warm water
(approx. 44-49°C) along with a disinfectant such as used in the household. Thereafter they are dried
with a soft paper towel. Never soak the eggs for a period longer than 4 minutes in order not to affect
the fertility. Never use cold water which promotes penetration of bacteria through the eggshell. Eggs
which have been sterilized by fumigation contribute essentially to hygiene.
Humidity
During the breeding period, humidity is essential. Refill the channels beyond the plastic tray with water
in order to prevent dehydration. By means of an egg tester (lamp) the egg is illuminated. In case the
bubble of air is too large, humidity is increased. The bubble has to be controlled depending on the type
of egg (see illustration). If you decide to make use of a hygrometer, there has to be used a special
hygrometer (for incubators) The three days before hatching the water channels are refilled once again
with warm water. Only refill with warm water. If the eggshell is particularly hard, you can make use of
a water-soaked sponge as a help for the breeding, so as to increase the humidity yet. Additionally, the
breeding temperature can be increased by 1°K at a maximum.
Hatching period
Three days before this phase, the turning device is removed and the eggs placed on the grid, thus
avoiding any possible injuries on the chicks caused by the turning procedure. After the hatching
procedure, the chicks are kept inside the breeding machine until their feathers have dried, but at the
latest after 24 hours.
Comment
Good breeding results are essentially dependent not only on the breeding material (eggs) but also on
the operation during the incubation period. There are several facts that lead to poor or even
unsuccessful hatching procedures. The reasons for such failure should always be analysed. After the
end of each breeding period, the lower part of the device and the channels are carefully cleaned and
disinfected.
