Select fresh fertilized eggs, ideally 4-7 days old, and store them at 10-15°C.
Ensure eggshells are free from deformities, cracks, or spots for optimal hatching.
Avoid improper disinfection; ensure egg surfaces are clean without spots.
Place eggs in the incubator with the pointed side down for proper development.
Monitor operation, add water every 1-2 days based on environment and machine needs.
Do not test fertile eggs with a candler in the first four days to avoid temperature decline.
Test eggs around days 5-6 to identify unfertilized or dead eggs.
Increase humidity and decrease temperature during the hatching period to prevent dehydration.
Perform initial tests to ensure all incubator functions operate correctly before use.
Adjust the incubator's temperature to the desired setting for optimal embryo development.
Configure low (AL) and high (AH) temperature alarm parameters for safety.
Set the lower limit for the temperature alarm to alert if the incubator gets too cold.
Set the upper limit for the temperature alarm to alert if the incubator gets too hot.
Adjust the humidity alarm settings (AS) to maintain optimal moisture levels.
Calibrate the temperature sensor (CA) to ensure accurate readings for precise control.
Set the upper (HS) and lower (LS) limits for temperature adjustment range.
Connect components, fill water channels, set eggs pointed side down, and start the day counter.
Continuously monitor humidity readings and refill water channels as needed.
Remove the egg tray on day 18 and increase humidity to aid chick hatching.
Maintain cleanliness, wash dirty eggs in warm disinfected water, and avoid soaking.
Use formaldehyde gas fumigation after collection to enhance hygiene and safety.
Utilize eggs from healthy flocks to prevent disease transmission and ensure hatchability.
Identify how specific nutrient deficiencies in breeders' diet impact embryo development and hatchability.
Address causes like mating ratios, male nutrition, or male age for infertile eggs.
Resolve issues like temperature extremes, incorrect fumigation, or long egg storage causing early death.
Correct causes such as improper egg turning or nutritional deficiencies leading to dead-in-shell eggs.
Diagnose issues like incorrect temperature, moisture imbalance, or faulty ventilation causing hatching problems.
Identify factors like temperature, turning errors, or tray surfaces leading to malformed chicks.
Investigate overheating, low moisture, or fumigant issues contributing to weak or small chicks.
Store eggs with the pointy end down for at least 24 hours after transport to settle the air cell.
Run the incubator for at least 24-48 hours before setting eggs to ensure proper adjustment.
Maintain 37.5°C and 55% humidity for the first 18 days, increasing to 60-65% for the last 3 days.
Regularly check thermometer accuracy and keep notes to make informed adjustments during incubation.
Check humidity using a hygrometer (wet-bulb thermometer) and compare readings to a chart.
Modify water surface area to adjust incubator humidity according to seasonal outside humidity levels.
Incubate chicken eggs for 21 days, turning them at least three times daily until day 18.
