2 Hatchrite incubators, good condition. One bigger unit and one smaller unit but is still very large. Pick up only. Archie, MO. Here are pics. The bigger unit just needs the roller bands replaced. It has the humidity unit and even the hatching baskets. (not in pic)
The smaller one also needs...
My 360 incubator isn't turning on, the plug works for my other 360 incubator so it's not the problem but the incubator itself. How do I go about fixing it and what will I need?
I have a nurture 360. I have 6 eggs in it. 3 are starting to hatch..... I was filling the water reservoir and didn't realize I overfilled....so all the paper towels I lined the grate with are wet! What should I do???
Hi, We are relatively new to keeping ducks and have acquired a few different breeds that are not laying/mating age yet. We do have a trio of mature Black Swedish in a separate paddock. The two Black Swedish ladies are laying eggs in a nest and they are fertile. My husband and I are hoping they...
I'm looking for an automatic incubator for jumbo quail eggs. I currently have a cute little $30 incubator with no humidity control and manual turning. Not sure where it's from, but I had a 25% hatch rate with it last time which was a bummer.
I'm getting some rare quail eggs soon and a 12 egg...
This is a very small incubator i intend to use for quail eggs.
It has two thermometers for redundancy insurance in case one goes goofy, one glass and one digital (needs batteries but it works!).
The bottom has a plastic tray for holding water. A hose extends down into the tray so water can be...
Hi everyone I I incubated my eggs at 96.5 by mistake because the temperature is stable and I trust my incubator I never checked it my mistake, humidity 49 to 55 no more no less I candle them on day 26 and they are all alive and moving a lot with the air sack big and the embryo covers almost all...
Has anyone tried using their incubator to ferment things (yogurt, etc.) in, or as a dehydrator? I'm testing out using my spare incubator (50-60 egg capacity) to make natto black beans in one container, and wildly fermented black beans in the second one (see pics). I'm curious if anyone else has...
I’m using a brand new kebonnixs incubator I just bought and while I set it by hand to have one more day than the pre-set amount of days (because I ran it without eggs for 24 hours as a test) it’s still acting as if I didn’t add a day and saying there’s 3 days left. But when I go to change it...
Hi everyone, I have a mallard duckling with protruding hips which causes him to keep his paws on top of each other when standing still.
He struggles to move and trips because of this malformation.
I hatched two broods inside a homemade incubator and three ducklings had crooked necks which I...

I decided to build a homemade chicken incubator to hatch baby chicks when it's convenient to do so. It allows us replace our layers as needed without depending on a hatchery or a broody hen.
Building a homemade incubator is not that difficult, but it could be a tad bit time consuming...
I have hatched peacock eggs for a couple of years now and have always had good hatch rates. Usually I have a 90% hatch rate but lately I have had about 25%. Pretty much all of the eggs are fertile and seem healthy right up till it’s time to hatch and then they die. They don’t even internally...
First timer; scrambled to get an incubator together after my wonderful drake Allfather disappeared early Friday morning of the 19th of May 2023.
I did a quick check at six days and had three out of three 'starters'. Much to my amazement, I didn't have a 'yolker' until number 25. So, out of 29...
we’ve been trying to incubate duck eggs for about two and a half months now with no success. We have gotten to day 26 and then the ducklings would just die. The temperature we’ve tried incubating them at is 37.5 degrees Celsius and the humidity is 50%. We’ve had about 15 fertilised eggs that...
May 18th, 2023 I plunked 15 eggs into a dehydrator to see if they'll hatch.
I had commented on another post about this and I don't want to put my updates there. But there
are updates to tell!
Today is day 8, as of midnight May 26. Early this morning I candled some of them and saw... Oh man! I...
So we started off with 52 eggs. Candled them around day 7. After the candling it narrowed down to 40 that were developing. From day 1-17 we had temp at 99/100 and humidity at 50-55%. The incubator that is being used has a fan and is self-turning (turns eggs every two hours). The incubator has...
Hello :)
Right now I am hatching Bantam Chicken eggs and I am using this circulating air incubator for the first time.
The eggs are sitting on these manual turning tubes that work as a turning tray and the air is coming from under them. Where the air is coming out from there is a temperature...
I have had ducks for a few years, and finally bought an incubator last year.
I had a very low hatch rate, on my first try, but my ducks were 5 years old and I’m pretty sure that was the biggest problem w my first attempt.
I was given a dozen duck eggs a few weeks ago from a friend who has the...
My Animal Science teacher is planning to hatch quail٫ ducks٫ Muscovy ducks٫ and chickens all in the same incubator. Will anything be able to hatch with all of the temperature٫ humidity٫ and incubation period differences?
I told her I had fertile duck and bantam eggs٫ but would rather hatch them...
I've tried hatching with a farm innovator digital series 4250 twice with no luck and I'm debating on getting a new incubator. I don't want to get the first one I see this time (lesson learned), and so far I've seen good reviews on both of these. Does anyone have any experience?
