I agree with what was said above. I keep two incubators. One acts as my incubator and the other as my hatcher. That way I can add new eggs about once a week and stagger the hatching in the hatcher so that I have a little bit of time to clean out the hatcher between batches of babies. Usually the incubator is going all spring summer and the hatcher is going off and on as I have babies ready to go into lockdown.
