What else can I help you with?
Where can I find information about hatching my own eggs in an incubator?
You can get the information you need online or at the place where you bought your eggs. If you are wanting a rare breed, some people purchase already fertilized eggs and use an incubator. It is a personal choice. If you incubate, you will usually have more chicks than if you let nature take its course.

What is the correct temperature for the incubator when hatching chicks?
101.5 in a still air incubator 99.5 in a forced air incubator Also important For the first 18 days the humidity should be 50%-60%ish and the eggs should be turned an odd number of times, at least three. For the last three days the humidity should be about 65%-70%, and the eggs should not be turned. Josie
What is the temp for chickens and ducks in the incubators?
The ideal temperature for hatching chickens or ducks in an incubator is between 99.5F and 100.5F. The temperature is not the only consideration as the humidity must be right also. Eggs should be at a 55% humidity rate through to the 18th day and raised to better than 65% during the final days. Chickens take 21 days from set to hatch but ducks take a few days more. Average incubation of most duck breeds is between 25 to 35 days depending on the breed.

How long does chicken eggs stay in icubator before hatching?
The hatching rate of chicks decreases significantly the longer they are kept at a cooler temperature (around 65 degrees F) before being put into an incubator. At low enough temperatures there will be no cell division however at the proper temperature of 99.8 degrees F the heart is visible and there are signs of blood circulation and heart beat at two days after the start of incubation. It is not recommended to keep eggs more than 5 days without incubation because they become weak and the hatching rate significantly decreases with time.
Is it better to let your chicken hatch the eggs or an incubator?
