Best Answer

Incubation is the method applied to eggs thus develop into an embryo and become a bird. Poultry incubation is that same method applied to poultry. Poultry is a category of domesticated birds kept by humans. With chickens, eggs are kept in a confined space at a temperature of 100.5 degrees F and a constant humidity of 60 percent for 21 days to allow full embryonic growth and hatch.

A machine that you put eggs into to keep them warm so they can hatch without having a hen sit on them.
