An Egg Incubator is the most hostile and supportive machine for an egg to incubate and hatch successfully. It does a decent job of maintaining a suitable incubation temperature and controlling the humidity at desired levels.
™
It creates a suitable environment for the eggs to hatch and recreates the role of a resenting hen in the nature.
It keeps the egg warm and maintains the correct humidity. It tries to develop and maintain as perfect as the conditions can get to have a fruitful result and having the incubation procedure carried out successfully.
Here are a few advantages that we get to experience and methods of usage that teach us the perks of utilizing an egg incubator
1. Quantity matters
An incubator hatches way more number of eggs than a hen. It is much more reliable and dependable when it comes to the hatching of eggs. As you see in the case of hens they would eventually stop laying eggs for the time that it sits on the eggs already laid. This drastically cuts your chance of getting a much larger number of chicks. Whereas, if you let the hens lay the eggs and you hatch them in the incubator you would get a much larger number of chicks as an outcome and that would be much more profitable.
2. Necessity of humidity control
This function is provided so that there's not much of a loss of the egg moisture. In order to have the wished outcome, all the conditions should be kept in mind while using an incubator for the hatching. Hence the humidity control is very essential as it keeps the moisture intact and does not cause a con. A lot of debate is still on regarding the ideal humidity level, so far it's been concluded that it should range between 70-80 % on the receding days and not fall below 25% or rise above 60% on the settling days.
3. Tossing and Turning the eggs
One of the vividly remembered advice of using this machine is that the eggs need to be turned twice or thrice a day. If you can increase the number to 4-5 times a day, it's even better. But you should keep in mind that no turning of eggs take place 3 days prior to the hatching. As the embryo advances towards the hatching phase no more turning of the eggs are necessary. It should also be kept in mind that the incubator should be closed to again maintain the desired temperature and humidity during the hatching process.
These few instructions on how to use an egg incubator and why exactly we use it is just to give the common people an idea of how it can give them their wanted results.
Doesn't these few pieces of information make you want to give it a try to this creation?
Don't you want to see whether it's as effective as it sounds and really does give a more appreciable result than the normal hatching of eggs?
Isn't it worth a try for a better outcome?
Then I hope these tips and techniques help you to try and learn the mechanism of an egg incubator and help in whichever work you endeavor to put it into use for.
Hatching chicks is one of the most beautiful aspects of raising chickens. Watching the shell break and the tiny beak pushing through the air cell is an enthralling experience.
There are a few important things that should be kept in mind while hatching checks, such as the length of time they are kept in the incubator. Most people go by rules and follow some pre-fixed length of time, which is not correct. The incubation time depends on several factors.
It takes 21 days of incubation for a chicken embryo to turn into a chick. However, it also depends on the flock age; embryos of flocks that are less than 30 weeks old may need about 5 to 7 hours extra to develop properly, when compared to the older flocks. But flocks that are 60 weeks or older produce embryos that need much more incubation time.
Incubation time also depends on how the eggs are stored. This is because both the yolk and albumen undergo changes during storage. Damage is caused to the embryo when eggs are stored for too long. Time of incubation increases by one hour for eggs that have been stored for more than three days, and it should be calculated for every extra day of storage after those three days.
Temperature in the incubator is another important factor that is proven to be very important for the growth of a chicken embryo. The hatching time goes up by four hours, when the incubator temperature decreases by 0.5 degrees C. The same thing happens when the incubator temperature is too high at more than 39 degrees C, after the 16th day, the incubation time increases. Throughout the incubation process, the temperature should be checked on a daily basis; because when the embryos are forming into chicks, there will be an increase in temperature, because they generate heat.
To hatch the best quality chicks, it is important to take them out from the incubator when about 90 to 95% of the chicks are dry, even if 5 to 10% of the chicks are still wet around the neck.
This becomes important because when chicks are taken out sooner than needed, they will be considered as second class, because they are not totally dry. On the other hand, if chicks are left for too long in the hatcher, the risk of death in the first week due to dehydration is high. Even if they happen to survive, dehydrated chicks are kuluçka makinesi said to be poor performers at the farm level.
Following these steps ensures that the batch of chicks hatched will be of top quality and good performers.
