    How To Set Up YourIncubator

    Most keepers are loaded and running in under 15 minutes. Here is the four-step routine.

    1

    Place And Plug In

    Set the incubator on a flat, level surface, away from direct sunlight, draughts and air conditioning vents. Plug in and let it run empty for 2 to 4 hours so the chamber stabilises at 37.5C before you add eggs.

    2

    Fill The Water Trays

    Add water to one internal tray and leave the air vent half-open for days 1 to 18. The display shows real-time humidity so you can adjust if your room is unusually dry or humid.

    3

    Load Eggs And Start The Timer

    Place up to 24 eggs in the turner with the pointed end down. Close the lid, set the species (chicken, duck or goose) and start the built-in 21 day countdown. The auto-turner kicks in immediately.

    4

    Lockdown At Day 18

    On day 18, the turner stops automatically. Move eggs to the base, fill both water trays, open the vent fully and leave the incubator alone until hatch on day 21. No opening the lid.

    FAQs

    Your Questions,Answered

    What temperature should the incubator be set at?
    The incubator is factory pre-set to 37.5°C (99.5°F) for chicken eggs, which is the optimal hatching temperature. You can adjust this if incubating other species.
    How do I control humidity during incubation?
    Humidity is managed by adding water to the internal trays and adjusting the air vent. Days 1–18: Fill one tray, vent half open Days 19–21: Fill both trays, vent fully open
    Does the incubator turn eggs automatically?
    Yes, the incubator features an automatic egg turner that rotates eggs every 60 minutes to support proper embryo development.
    When should I stop turning eggs?
    Egg turning stops automatically 3 days before hatch (day 18 for chickens). At this stage, eggs should be moved to the base for hatching.
    How long does a hatch cycle take?
    For chicken eggs, the standard incubation period is 21 days, with a built-in countdown timer to track progress.

      Egg incubator

      Egg incubator was easy to set up, and hatch out my chicks.

      I give it 99/100

      If only it came with an anti slip matt or something to insert for lockdown, i made my own for it.

      Great Value for money!

      Bought this at the start of the year and we've done two hatches with it. Almost 100% hatch rate, it's super easy to set-up, easy to clean and the automation on it makes it FANTASTIC to hatch with. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
