5.0 Humidity.

Hatching Eggs, during Incubation, need to lose about 13-15% of their egg weight in water vapour, so that the Air Sac is the

correct size for hatching. Loss of too much or too little water vapour can cause the chick embryos not to hatch. By reading the

Relative Humidity (RH%) we know what percentage of the air is water vapour, and whether to add more water or take away

some. Through experience you will get to know the best percentage Relative Humidity to run your

incubator at for your eggs. Our advice to start you off is to use the settings in the Species Chart

To read Relative Humidity you need a Hygrometer Accessory.

If you do not wish to use a hygrometer, keep the water pot full throughout the incubation. DO NOT add

more water than in the water pot as this can increase the humidity level too high and cause damage to the

incubator. ( More can be added if you are using a Hygrometer accessory)

Humidity is directly proportional to the surface area of water in an incubator. To increase

humidity, add more surface area, (add another container); to decrease humidity, remove surface area.

i.e.Cover a container with tape. Increasing the depth of water does not increase humidity, only means

that it will last longer at the current humidity

IN ALL CASES DO NOT ALLOW YOUR INCUBATOR TO HAVE WATER CONDENSATION IN

IT FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME AS THIS CAN CAUSE IRREPAIRABLE DAMAGE TO

COMPONENTS.

6.0 Egg Candling. Egg candling should be done after 8 or 18 days after insertion of the

eggs in the incubator. When candling an egg, you are looking: at the embryo

development, and with some candlers you may be able to see life; the air sac size,

checking it's growing, and that it is not floating; Identify Eggs that do not have an

embryo in them; and to identify diseased eggs. Eggs that are imperfect or infertile should

be discarded. Candling is a skill that will develop with experience.

7.0 The Hatch Period - The LAST 3 DAYS of the whole period of incubation (see Species Chart) the eggs should

NOT BE TURNED. Fill up all your humdity pot to increase the humidity, close the lid, and leave the incubator

alone. Only open the top to refill humidity pot, then leave it again.

Once the chicks start hatching, leave them in the incubator. The chicks can live 3 days after they are born, even

without eating or drinking and without any kind of problem.

The chicks should not drink because they have to absorb the yolk sac completely. If chicks drink, they may not

absorb it completely & it may cause many deaths and deformities.

Leave chicks alone until the last chick hatched is dry and fluffy.

NEVER SPRAY OR SPRINKLE WATER INSIDE THE INCUBATOR AS THIS CAN CAUSE THE

ELEMENT TO FAIL, KILLING ALL YOUR EMBRYOS. If you must spray your eggs, take the tray

of eggs out of the incubator and spray away from the incubator, then replace them.
