What is an Egg Incubator?
An egg incubator is a device used to hatch eggs by maintaining a consistent temperature and humidity level. Incubators can be used for chicken eggs, quail eggs, reptile eggs, and even some species of fish eggs.
Why Not Use a Broody Hen?
While broody hens are a cost-effective and natural option, hens aren’t always broody or good mothers. They may abandon their chicks, and without an incubator, the chicks will have to fend for themselves. Hens also cannot detect rotten eggs, which may affect other eggs and even explode over time.
Egg incubators make it easy to monitor and care for your eggs to improve hatching success.
Benefits of Using an Egg Incubator in Australia
There are many benefits to using an incubator. One of the biggest is that it helps increase the successful hatch rate of your eggs with its controlled, even temperature and humidity. However, most egg incubators will also require you to set the temperature and turn the eggs.
Another benefit of using an incubator is that it protects your hatchlings from predators. This is especially important if you live in an area with a lot of wildlife or have pets that could potentially harm the baby chicks.
Lastly, chicken egg incubators are easy to monitor because they have clear containers that let you see the progress of your hatching eggs without having to open the incubator and disturb the delicate process.
