Ukal Automatic egg incubator Chick'a

The automatic incubator allows for the incubation of 12 medium/large eggs (up to goose eggs) or 48 small eggs such as quail (4 eggs per cell). Designed by our experts, this incubator should ideally be placed in a room with a temperature between +20°C and +25°C and a humidity level between 40 and 50%. This incubator is compatible with the following eggs: chicken, pheasant, guinea fowl, partridge, grey partridge, rock partridge, turkey, waterfowl (goose, mallard, all breeds of ducks…), peacock, pigeon, exotic birds, and raptors. Its digital display allows for a clear view of the temperature. The incubator has a built-in rotary fan to provide constant and even ventilation to the eggs. Automatic tilting occurs every hour thanks to the motor. Features: Voltage: 230 volts - 60/50 Hz single phase Maximum power: 80 watts AC Average daily consumption: max 1.0 kW / 24 h Medium/large eggs: 12 Small eggs: 48 Temperature range: from 30°C to 40°C Temperature probe: electronic precision thermostat: +/- 0.1°C Humidity in the incubator: 40/50% with water in one reservoir; 55/65% with water in both reservoirs Protection level: IPX4 Dimensions: 320 x 360 x 260 mm Weight: 3.08 kg Usage tips: Be sure to maintain a stable environment with the correct temperature and humidity levels. Keep the machine in a stable and fixed position at least 50 cm from the ground. Do not remove the protective grid. Never cover the incubator during operation. Use demineralized water. 4 incubation parameters: TEMPERATURE: Good embryo development Ideally between 37.4 °C and 37.6 °C Constant and regular Triggers cell multiplication Heat effect → the embryo grows and feeds on the substances contained in the white and yolk of the egg Too much heat → the germ dies HUMIDITY: Loss of 15 to 20% of its weight in water Too much water loss → chick too weak to hatch or survive after hatching Too much humidity → air cell too small → chick too large suffocates VENTILATION: Essential for the embryo's survival The embryo breathes through the pores of the shell Not enough air → the embryo suffocates RETURNING: Good development → the embryo must not stick to the membrane Mandatory turning (min. 2x every 24h)
