Brinsea EcoGlow50 User Instructions

HD50x GB draft
Chicks should stay in the incubator for a minimum 24 hours to recover from
hatching and to dry off, they do not require food or water. If a chick fails to
thrive return it to the incubator for longer. Closely monitor new chicks for
the first few days when they are most vulnerable. It is relatively common for
chicks to die on their first or second day due to hidden problems created
during development in the egg.
Because the heat from the black underside of the EcoGlow is largely radiant,
®
measuring the temperature with a thermometer is of little value. Radiant heat
passes through air without warming it, only a solid object will absorb and be
warmed by radiant heat. So a thermometer will register the air temperature Glow

but not the radiant heat and will usually show at least (5 to 10°F) 3 to 6°C
lower than the effective temperature felt by the chicks. Always watch the
behaviour of the birds. They will naturally huddle together if they are cool.
The more of them, the less external warmth they need.
CHICK BROODER
Gradually increase the height of the panel as the chicks grow. They will use
the heat source less as they get older.
