Sorry guys! My Hatchrite web site has been down for a while... But it is back up now! I just moved to Florida and finally got my web server back up and running with a new URL. Here is the new Hatchrite web site address: http://www.mithrack.serveftp.net/hatchrite/manual As always...

I added a schematic for the recent rebuild of my Hatchrite CP50 and a bunch more photos of the unit. Use the link from my previous posts. The link to the new photos and schematic are found near the bottom of my web site. Enjoy!

This is a bit late, but I rebuilt my Hatchrite last year and it works great - it is busy incubating eggs right now :-) Here is a web site that I created that lists Hatchrite resources, free manuals, sources for parts, videos of the rebuild Etc: http://idk.serveftp.net/hatchrite/manual/

If you have any questions about the HatchRite, let me know. I can't fix it for you, but I'm happy to dispense free advice You can reach me at [email protected]. I only drop by BYC about once a month, so it is faster to contact me directly.

All, I updated my HatchRite repair site today, adding some videos of the recent rebuild I did to my 2-drawer HatchRite CP50. The videos detail the rewire process and the new humidity generator I designed. http://idk.serveftp.net/hatchrite/manual/ Everything on the site is free: Manuals...

Did you see my post earlier in this thread? I created a HatchRite incubator site with repair ideas, free downloads of all the manuals I could find, sources for parts and how to rebuild one from scratch. All free, no adverts. Here is the link: http://idk.serveftp.net/hatchrite/manual

No, not really. Use a 1/4 Inch nutdriver if you need to take the case apart to get it through a doorway. The case screws are all the same size, so don't worry about mixing them up. If you need to adjust the rollers: The rollers are held in by hex nuts - use an appropriate nutdriver (I...

Opals21, It depends on the roller gap - the space between the blue rubber rollers. On mine, I can get about 150 eggs on one shelf. Caveat: The shelves were originally designed for Ostrich and Emu eggs so the gap was set quite wide at the factory - probably 2-3 inches. With chicken eggs...

If anyone needs documentation/users manual for a Hatchrite Incubator, you can find it here: http://idk.serveftp.net/hatchrite/manual/ While this information covers an CP-50, it is likely useful for other models. Best regards, Kevin G. McCoy

Here is mine, full of Muscovy eggs. Just did a hatch of some Icelandic chickens a few weeks ago. The bottom drawer has been converted into a hatcher. You can see a Muscovy duckling peeking out in the lower left corner, plus a bunch of pipped eggs: I am a software/computer hardware...

Kekko, Yes, I found the same two guys and the one from Sunny Creek Farms gave me the same bad vibes you got. He wanted money up front, would not send any sample manual pages prior to the sale and failed to answer *any* of my pre-sales questions. I won't be doing business with him. The guy in...

Quote: I made my own Hatchrite humidifier out of a kids room vaporizer. I drilled a hole in the top of the humidifier were the steam used to shoot out, and stuffed some hose from an old rug shampooer into the hole. This ducts the water vapor out of the humidifier into the normal Hatchrite...

Quote: Are you looking for the rollers or the roller belts? I have a source for the belts: http://www.mcmaster.com/#drive-belts/=7c24xf Measure one of the broken ones or tie a string around the drive roller and one of the egg rollers. Measure the string. There are better instructions on...

Quote: Have you had any luck with the Hatchrite? I bought an Hatchrite MP-83 a couple months ago and have been refurbishing it myself. (I am a techie). I have it working pretty well and am incubating a bunch of Muscovy duck eggs in it now. I replaced the missing computer on mine. The guy I...

Quote: That is the route I took after raccoons killed 3/4 of my goose flock in one night. A few weeks later, a fox finished off the rest, in broad daylight! I had a 5-wire electric fence installed (3 hot-wires covering the first 18" or so above the ground, and 2 hot wires up near the top (5...
