Egg incubator manual on hatching from day 1 to 21

Collect fresh, fertile eggs from healthy birds and place them in the incubator.

The eggs should be less that 10 days old, good quality and clean

Adjust the temperature and humidity levels to the recommended settings for the type of eggs being incubated.

Set temperature to 37.8 and humidity at 60%-65%

Turn the eggs 3 to 4 times a day to ensure proper embryonic development.

Turning eggs aid in oxygen circulation and prevents the yolk from sticking inside the shell

Continue to adjust the temperature and humidity levels as necessary to maintain the optimal range for incubation.

This should be done by keeping a close look at the operation of the incubator

Monitor the eggs regularly to ensure they are developing properly and to address any issues that may arise

You can use a candler from day 8 to check on the development of the egg

Stop turning the eggs on day 18

Stop the turner or transfer the eggs to the hatching basket. Raise the humidity levels to around 65-70% to prepare the eggs for hatching.

Check the eggs for any signs of cracking or pipping, which indicates that the hatchling is beginning to emerge on day 21

Always avoid to open the incubator on during hatching as this results to poor hatch rate due to the loss of humidity

On day 22 and once the hatchlings have emerged, remove them from the incubator and place them in a brooder for proper care and feeding.

It is always recommended to allow 24 hours after the first pipping to remove the chicks from the incubator..

How often should the eggs be turned during incubation?

Eggs should be turned several times a day during incubation to ensure that the developing embryo has access to an adequate supply of oxygen and to prevent the yolk from settling in one place. The recommended frequency of turning can vary depending on the type of egg and the incubator being used, but most experts recommend turning eggs at least 3 to 4 times a day.

Some incubators have automatic turning mechanisms that rotate the eggs on a regular schedule, while others require manual turning. If you are turning the eggs manually, it’s important to be gentle and to avoid handling the eggs too much, as rough handling can cause damage to the developing embryo.

It’s also important to keep track of which end of the egg is facing up, as the position of the egg can impact its development. Some incubators have trays that are marked with a “top” and “bottom” side to help ensure that the eggs are returned to the correct position after each turning.

In general, it’s best to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for egg turning or consult with a specialist in egg incubation to ensure that you are turning your eggs correctly and often enough for optimal hatch rates.
