Hatching Camera.

For those that are interested I don't monitor humidity days 1 threw 17. That incubator is ran completely dry.

Eggs are collected for 7 days. Most are Easter Eggers, hatchery Ameraucanas, Green egg layers or what ever ya care to call them.

On day 18 (Fridays) they are moved to this incubator that has the camera. Its a fridge incubator with a modified house thermostat controlling a hairdryer.

Humidity is kept at about 72% by a humidistat an a frog habitat foggier.

After they hatch they are moved to a deep-freeze turned chicken brooder to grow out.

Happy Hatching.

So do you let yours hatch in that egg carton?

 

[rebelcowboysnb]

Every time I tried that before I got bad hatches. Now that I have switched to using 2 incubators it has been working great. I believe that the dryer the eggs are the better the carton hatch works.
