An egg incubator is a device that provides controlled conditions to hatch eggs artificially.
A hatcher is a device that provides the optimal conditions for eggs to hatch, typically used after the eggs have been incubated for a specific period.
Egg incubators and hatchers come in various sizes, from small tabletop models to larger cabinet-style units.
They can be designed to accommodate different types of eggs, including chicken, quail, and duck eggs.
Good incubators and hatchers should have precise temperature and humidity controls to ensure successful hatching.
Some models have automatic turning mechanisms to mimic the natural behavior of a mother bird.
Incubators and hatchers can be electric, propane, or solar-powered, depending on the manufacturer and model.
A good incubator or hatcher should be easy to clean and maintain to prevent the buildup of bacteria and other contaminants that can harm developing embryos.
They should also have a clear viewing window to monitor the progress of the eggs and make any necessary adjustments.
