take eggs as an example to explain the incubation method:
Step 1: selection of breeding eggs
Fertilized eggs that are 3-7 days old (best), no feces, no cracks, no pollution of broken egg liquid (the date of laying the egg can be marked on the egg with a pen).
Step 2: temperature and humidity
During the entire incubation period, you can incubate at the default temperature of 37.8. There is no need to adjust the temperature. Basically, add about 100ml of water every day. Use a water injector to add water directly to the chassis from the side. Humidity is only auxiliary. Keep the chassis with a little water.
Step 3: vent
The air volume adjustment port on the machine lid is closed during the incubation period, and at most one-third of the opening in the last three days, be careful not to open it all.
Step 4: egg candler
After 7 days of incubation, you can select the development status of the breeding eggs. Press the “lighting” button on the panel in a dark environment, and use the egg light to take photos one by one. As long as you can clearly see the bloodshot inside, it is the development. Good, otherwise it will be infertile or weak eggs that cannot be hatched, and need to be screened out so that the hatching rate can be improved.
Step 5: drying eggs and spraying
After incubation for 17 days, you can open the cover of the machine to dry the eggs for about 5 minutes every day (keep the ambient temperature appropriate and not too low! Otherwise, the eggs will flash), and then use the small watering can to add about 38 degrees of warm water on top of the eggs Spray a few times, and the sprayed mist will naturally fall on the breeding eggs. Spray 3-5 times a day, and then cover the machine after spraying. This will help the breeding eggs to break their shells smoothly. The hatching of other breeding eggs is also to dry the eggs and spray them with warm water a few days before the shell.
Step 6: Out of the shell
In the last 3 days, you don’t need to turn the eggs during the shell period. Just remove the gear under the motor. Pay attention to the chicks breaking the shell. At this time, be sure to spray more warm water to prevent the egg shell from being too hard and causing sticking. Inside the shell.
Step 7: warm and brood the chicks
After the shell is broken, pick out the egg skins in time, and when the chicken feathers are dry, take them out of the incubator, find a carton and put a warming lamp in the carton to slowly cool off and raise them. Generally, the brooding chicks are kept warm for 7-10 days. The temperature is about 30 degrees.
