Does a chicken egg incubator need a cover? I made a homemade chicken incubator for the chicken eggs I recently got. I also got an incubator that holds 3 eggs. The incubator that I bought seems to keep the heat in better than the homemade one but both thermometers read 100 F. When I take the eggs out to turn it, the ones in the store bought incubator seems a lot warmer than the homemade incubator. Could this be because I have no cover for the homemade incubator? Thanks
I bought an egg incubator. But the eggs did not hatch after 21 days? What did I done wrong? 1. I have a rooster and a hen so I did not buy this in the supermarket. 2. My incubator has automatic turner, so I dont manually turn the eggs daily. 3. There is a basin below where I put half full of water, after 3-4 days, before it runs out of water. 4. The temp says its 37.5 Degrees C / 100F. Pls help. Thanks. I only have 1 rooster and 1 hen. Both are 1 yr old(approx). I placed the incubator outside the house but under a shade. No direct sunlight. I live in a tropical country. Is humidity a factor? Do i need to place the incubator inside?
