How to properly perform machine incubation

1. Preparation before hatching.
Incubators can be hatched with hatchers. The hatching conditions and equipment required are basically the same as the chickens, except that the specifications of the egg trays are different. Egg trays used for hatching were 2.5 centimeters apart (smaller than the horizontal diameter of the quail eggs), and the number of hatched eggs in the incubator was 2.3 to 2.5 times the number of hatched eggs.
The incubator should be ventilated and kept warm. Before hatching, use 10% lime milk to paint the walls, wash the ground with 3% alkaline water, rinse with clean water, dry, and wash all the incubators and place them in the hatchery. Wash-ready incubators can also be fumigated along with the first eggs. In addition to the incubator, the incubator should also check whether the performance of each component is intact.
Eggs can be disinfected with 1 ounce of benzalkonium disinfectant (water temperature 34°C~36°C). The eggs were then placed in a sterilizer. Each cube volume was 15 g of potassium permanganate and 30 ml of formaldehyde. The temperature was 25°C and the humidity was 75%. Sterilization was carried out for 30 minutes. After the eggs are sterilized, they are preheated in the hatchery for 8 to 10 hours before hatching.
2. Management during incubation.
During hatching, the hatching room can not leave the person day and night, duty staff should pay attention to observe the temperature and humidity of the incubator and the incubator room, ventilation, the operation of the machine, responsible for turning eggs, egg inspection, hatching management.
(1) According to the egg. In the entire incubation period, 1 or 2 eggs can be seen. The first photo can be carried out within 7 to 8 days of incubation. At this time, if the inside of the egg is transparent red, the blood vessels are visibly visible. The embryo is visible to the naked eye in the air chamber. It is a normal embryo. If it is transparent, the grey-gray is lean; Eggs with irregular blood spots, blood rings, and blood lines are stillbirths. The purpose of the first photo is to pick out azoospermia and stillbirth, observe the development of the embryo, and adjust the incubation conditions.
The second illumination was carried out on the 15th day of hatching. The purpose was to pick out dead embryonic eggs. When eggs are laid, normal embryos have filled the entire egg space. Flashing feathers can be seen at the edge of the air chamber. Slowly developing embryos can see thick blood vessels at the edge of the air chamber. The entire egg is dark. If the egg sees turbid liquids that appear semi-permeable, with some dark patches, this indicates that they are stillborn and should be removed.
(2) Management of hatching.
After 15 days of hatching, hatchlings were hatched. When some of the hatchlings broke shells, they would be set aside to prepare for hatching. The smashing of the shell quickly, when the crack was opened, the smashed shell teeth hit the hole, and soon after breaking around the edge of the air chamber, they exhausted their shells. From the beginning of the shell to the shell, about 40 to 120 minutes, after taking a break can stand up. If hatching is successful, hatching is completed within 24 hours.
After hatching, hatchlings must wait for hair shafts to be removed from the incubator and place them in boxes. At this time, the temperature of the hatchery is required to be above 27°C.
Pay attention to the boxes in which the young chicks are placed, and soft grass or sack cloths, rough cotton cloths, etc. must be covered. Do not use smooth paper or plastic cloth. The volume of the box should not be too large. When it is too large, it must be separated to prevent the chicks from licking. 1 square meter can put 800. Each box can only hold 200, to avoid crushed to death. It is best not to hatch a hatchery in the hatchery and take it away as soon as possible. If more than 24 hours after hatching, feed and drink.
When each batch is hatched, clean the hatchery and incubator and prepare for the next hatch.

Electric Under Blanket is a specific type of Electric Blanket, usually used in European countries. It is placed below the bottom bed sheet, but cannot be above the bed sheet or over human body.

It normally has 3 to 4 heat settings as option. Consumers can choose their suitable temperature ranges.

Electric under blanket is normally used for sleeping, hence it normally shut off after 12 hours, or be turned off manually.
