How to hatch chickens at home?

Prepare 1 cartons or wooden cases. The bottom and four walls of the boxes should be firmly pasted with paper, and then spread with a layer of padding with a thickness of half an inch, such as cotton and hay.

Put the eggs layer by layer (no more than 3 layers) into the box, put the 1 thermometer on the top egg, and then cover the box tightly with a quilt. The temperature in the box is controlled at 38-39℃, and the eggs are turned every 6-8 hours 1 time to ensure that the eggs are evenly heated.

After hatching 19 days, the egg head is placed upward and cotton is padded around it. Eggs are cooled every 3 hours 1 time, and each time lasts 1-2 minutes. After about 1-2 days, the chicks can hatch.

Chickens are naturally hatched and artificially hatched. The incubation period of chickens is about 2 1 day, laying eggs on 18, and laying eggs on 7 days. Generally affected by room temperature, incubation can be early or late.
