1. Sorry but is of no use you trying to hatch Canary eggs in an incubator. First they are too fine a shell and would be damaged when turning them,then thee is the hassle of trying to feed the chicks if you do hatch them. Most important has your bird got a mate?if not then forgett it. Come back with any further questions and I will be able to give you more info.
2. Hi, It's very difficult to incubate canary eggs in an incubator, but not impossable. The best incubator for you would be the R-Com 3, with the quail egg tray (it's blue and holds 7 quail eggs). It is fully automatic, it will turn the eggs 8 times per day, you can set it for the incubation times, control the humidity perfectly.All you really got to do is watch. And now for the difficult part. Hand rearing a brood of young canaries is going to be hard work, not only you have to have a brooder, you'll need all the equipment that goes with hand rearing them, Canaries are very small when hatched, and need to be fed every two hours day and night.You can buy or make your own egg food but to be honest here, I personnally think they'll die on you. Anyway....... Good luck
