▶ Check the temperature difference within the device.
(sunlight and temperature of hatching room, etc)
Symptom Estimated cause (possibility) Solutions
If the chick is born earlier
than the estimated date
or when is malformed
▶ If the setup temperature is too high.
▶ If the egg rotation is not performed.
▶ In case of unhealthy hatchery egg.
▶ Slightly decrease the temperature of the device. [0.5°C (1°
F)]
Ex) 37.5°C → 37.0°C
▶ Initiate egg rotation test verifying if the egg rotation
function
If the chick is born later
than the estimated date
▶ If the setup temperature is too low.
▶ Slightly increase the temperature of the device. [0.5°C (1°F)]
Ex) 37.0°C → 37.5°C
