Is a 60 watt bulb ok for a glass chicken egg incubator?

What does the egg incubator do?
Get a box add a blanket and get a lamp it must stay at 95 To 101 degrees you also must turn the egg three times a day it takes 21to 23 days to hatch to check if an egg is fertilized put it up to a flashlight if you see a blob it is probably fertilized
Can you still hatch a robin without an incubator?
No. Chicken eggs not only require a very specific heat that is constant, but they also require humidity. The light bulb would make the air about the egg dry. Plus, it's unlikely that the egg would hatch being exposed to more foreign bacteria.
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.
What is the best temperature to incubate duck eggs?
In A Guide to Better Hatching, by Janet Stromberg, She suggests for most ducks 28 days at 99.5 degrees. Muscovy ducks take 35-37 days. A still air incubator is recommended and increasing the temperature by 2 to 3 degrees. The book can be gotten by contacting Stromberg Publishing Box 400, Pine River, Minnesota 56474.

Is it possible to incubate chicken eggs with a common house lamp?
Yes it is, the lamp and the eggs must be in an insulated box with some means of regulating the temperature. Its probably cheaper and less trouble to buy an incubator. However, some people who are industrious use light bulbs to power their home built incubators utilizing something like an old refrigerator rather than spending hundreds on cabinet type incubators. If you attempt a make shift incubator, use a bulb of less than 60 watts to help avoid fire hazards. My first incubator was a fish tank and a light bulb, while being a lot of trouble to maintain the temp, i had a 50% hatch rate.
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
