Tutorial video of artificially incubating eggs

The tutorial for artificially incubating eggs is as follows:

1. Prepare incubation equipment: incubator: select an incubator with proper size, good ventilation and constant temperature and humidity control function. Incubator: Buy a professional incubator that can provide constant temperature and humidity.

2. Choose high-quality eggs: choose eggs laid by healthy hens. Eggs should have a complete shell, without cracks and stains. Choose fresh eggs, which usually hatch within 24 hours after laying eggs.

3. Temperature and humidity control: temperature control: according to different chicken breeds, set the appropriate incubation temperature. Generally speaking, the incubation temperature of resin chickens is 37.537.8 degrees Celsius, while that of other chickens is 37.237.5 degrees Celsius. Humidity control: During incubation, keeping proper humidity is helpful to the development of chicken embryos. The initial humidity can be set to 60.70%, and it can be gradually increased to 80.85% in the late incubation period.

4. Incubation process: preparation before hatching: before hatching, the eggs are placed at room temperature for 24 hours, so that the temperature of the eggs is close to room temperature, which is beneficial to the development of embryos. Turn the egg: Turn the egg to help the embryo develop evenly in the egg.

Generally, it turns 23 times a day until it stops 23 days before hatching. Incubation time: The incubation time of different chicken breeds is slightly different, generally 2 123 days. During incubation, keep constant temperature and humidity.

5. Incubator management: temperature detection and adjustment: check the temperature in the incubator regularly and adjust it as needed. Monitor the temperature change with a thermometer to avoid the temperature being too high or too low.

Humidity detection and adjustment: check and adjust the humidity in the incubator to maintain an appropriate humidity level. You can increase the humidity by adding water, or you can reduce the humidity by opening the vent of the incubator. Ventilation management of the incubator: clean and replace the waste and egg residue in the incubator in time to maintain the hygiene and air circulation in the incubator.

6. Identification of hatching results: The eggs hatched successfully: After the hatching cycle of eggs is over, the hatched eggs will have cracks and there are signs of chicks hatching. At this time, chicks should be transferred to a suitable brooding environment in time.

Unencubated or dead eggs: After the incubation period, there are no signs on the shell of the unencubated or dead eggs, which can usually be judged by listening to the heartbeat or observing the cracks.

7. Preparation of brooding environment: Prepare greenhouse box or henhouse for chicks, and keep the temperature at 3035 degrees Celsius. Ensure that the environment is dry and well ventilated. Provide suitable drinking fountains and feeders to ensure that chickens get enough water and feed.
