Amazon 56 Egg Incubator [How to Use]

[@ZackEleton]

Thank you!!! So much easier to follow then the others i watched! I pray it works right i have some very important and EXPENSIVE eggs going in tmrw

[@reaganskopp]

I remember hatching my Svart höna eggs. So nerve wrecking.

[@JoeV-nq9ez]

Ma'am, your directions are far better than what came with the machine, I took your advice and ordered a second thermometer, however, you made a comment. You're a"dry hatcher" and I would like to tell you I have hatched, hundreds and hundreds of chicks with cheaper incubators also from Amazon ($60 square crap-ola models with different names) through my experience, I learned humidity is the absolute most important thing. I'm now terrified to use this machine. I'm not being a jerk. I'm very thankful I found your video. But what the heck kind of company does not have proper instructions? I have some somewhat exotic eggs here. I think I'm going to hold off on them and do a trial run. Thanks so much for helping everyone! It's a shame we have to figure this stuff out together instead of by a manufacturers video or even a more in-depth instruction book.

[@bambibratsch7908]

I love watching KZbin videos that actually show you how to figure something out. I was about to throw this incubator in the garbage. I still don't like this incubator for lockdown. The bottom is plastic, and they slip and slide when they try to get up and the fan dries out the eggs, so we had to modify it. Thanks for helping us out with the settings!

[@reaganskopp]

Awe thanks. It’s honestly not the incubator I use nowadays. Which is why this isn’t a recommendation video. But I did successfully use it to hatch multiple batches after lots of trial and error which is why I made the video. I actually got another ‘cheap’ incubator off Amazon that is in the other video I use now. Much better design.

[@summersstones2911]

Is there a setting on this incubator for days? I cannot find it on mine. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.

It was super hard to clean. Do you have any idea how to reset the days it’s at 34 now.

[@davidapp3730]

Thank you great video. If I understand you correctly you need to change the temperature settings for the last 3 days when the eggs are taken out of the turner and set on the hatch floor?

This is a great instructional video! You did an awesome job!! I had to transfer 15 emu eggs to this incubator last night after my cabinet GQF sportsman 1502 blew a fuse. The alarm kept going off and I was about to go out of my mind by 4:30 am when I found your tutorial. I had been messing around with the settings and had figured most of them out. Your cheat to lower the humidity to 1 gave me 90 mins of sleep before I had to get up and start a Monday at work. Thank you. All 15 emu eggs and my children thank you!!

[@beccagordon4406]

Hi I couldn't see the question in the comments but was curious if there is enough vents in this incubator. I put a blanket over the top to stabilize the heat but how does it then get fresh air?

[@reaganskopp]

There is a vent hole on the side where you can also add water. Just make sure that is open and you should be good.

hello how do you go about getting a humidity level between 50/60% I haven't yet found the perfect dose with the 100ml dispenser I get to 70% and when I my 30ml gets 68% and it rings quite often My question, how do you do it?

[@reaganskopp]

Apologies but I can’t really help you. I dry hatch so I just refill humidity when it drops low and don’t focus on a constant level. I do cover how to stop the beeping in the video and I use a separate thermometer/hygrometer.

[@migueldeleon505]

9:16 when you say turn it down. What degrees is a safe degrees, so they won’t burn? My eggs are almost at that 18 day mark, and I want to transition them to the hatching platform. But what degrees is safe to keep them on the platform?

[@reaganskopp]

You will have to figure that out with a secondary thermometer. Each incubator is different. I put mine on the hatching floor turn it waaaay down and slowly up the temp till I am back at 99.5

hi can i ask you something about this incubator. what do you mean by raiting switch the fan?

[@Fluffaloo]

It seems like they updated the version of this incubator. Now it reads in F and the humidity alarm is slightly more annoying. I have it set to 1 for humidity but the alarm still goes off below 30. The only way I can solve this problem is add a full squirt bottle of water every single night to keep it from constantly going off. Btw the egg turner now comes pre set up and connected as well.

Hello I know you have posted this two years about but I just have one question and I hope you could answer it so do you keep the temperature when they are on the tray about 97 to 101 and then on the last 3 days you lower it because the tray on the bottom the temperature is way higher than the tray. Because right now I’m just using the temperature from the bottom tray not the top and they are still developing I’m just wonder how does it work and what do temperature do I use

[@irmacostilla91]

Sorry, I know you said it’s better to use a second thermometer but what are the temperatures you have set up on the incubator? The humidity level and the Celsius? And also what is the name of the thermometer.

[@reaganskopp]

I use this blue tooth thermometer amzn.to/4czfYe6 I go for 99.5° F (it can vary 99-102 is still fine) and the humidity I start at 60 ish then I don’t add water till is down to like 15-20. Repeat till day 18 or 19 and then raise the humidity to 60 for hatching (when I take out the turner). DO not open until everyone has hatched once you do that final raise.

[@geoffthacker8724]

can you please help me ive tried everything, i have same machine as this but i can not get the humidity to go below 80%

[@reaganskopp]

If it has no water in it and is still at 80 then you need to get a separate hydrometer. I suggest that anyway for these machines. If you have water in it it can take several days, especially if the ambient air is moist. If you are not to hatching yet, you can open the lid and wipe out any moisture that collects daily. To speed the process along. Otherwise just let it slowly decrease.

[@TineVlogs07]

Hello SoilSista! Ok so I just purchased this incubator and planning on hatching out quail. Any tips? I'm super new at this and taking all not to prepare for a successful hatching. Ha! I appreciate the tips in this video as it is helpful thus far. Many blessings to you 🙏🏾

[@reaganskopp]

So the biggest tip I have for quail is keep the humidity lower until hatch day. Maybe look up dry hatch methods. Second biggest tip would be to consider how to block the edge holes in the incubator. It looks like how could a quail fit through there? But they can! I got some plastic mesh I lay over it when I remove the egg turners. And then I shove paper towels in any gap I don’t have a nice tight fit in the mesh. They can get through the tiniest crack!

[@alastair1955]

Awesome video, I have this exact incubator and could not figure how to do the settings, your explanation is excellent. A question, unlike most incubators the fan and heat source is below the eggs, so not as easy as other incubators to remove the egg tray at day 18 and put the chicks on the bottom. Can I let the eggs hatch in the yellow egg holder bit if I disconnect the egg turning motor, and then will the chickens be OK to be left on that for the 24 hours or so normally recommended they should stay in the incubator? IE, will their feet slip through the gaps or will they be OK?

[@reaganskopp]

No! You absolutely have to remove the turner and put them on the flat grid floor. They need to have a nice flat grippable surface for learning to walk. I even place some paper towels under the eggs when I lay them on the hatching floor to give an even better surface. If you leave the egg turners in the chicks will get caught in the turners and die or likely have malformed feet/legs. The turners really aren’t that bad to remove. They pop out pretty easily. Getting them back in is a little more challenging but not too bad.

Can I turn off the turner? My chicks are pipping 3 days early, this is the morning of lockdown, and they are pipping before I could take the turner tray out!! Should I let them hatch in the tray?

Do not let them hatch in the tray! Go ahead and as quickly as possible get the chicks in the hatching floor. You will want to raise the humidity stat and try not to open it again.

It moves them side to side.

I was looking for a tutorial video. Had slight difficulty in understanding the explanation. Now I am confused over what "fry" means. How many degrees should be changed when eggs are placed on bottom tray.

[@reaganskopp]

the same temperature should be set for the floor as the turners. The problem is that the heat is much warmer the closer you get to the electronics. I literally cooked my eggs. You have to turn the heat down to get it back to 38°c. I use a second thermometer to gauge.

You still keep the temp at 99.5-100.5 F for chickens. That doesn’t change for hatch unless it is a different species. You would want the humidity to be 60 percent or higher. That part is up for debate on your preferred method.

It is wrong. You’ll need a second thermometer to calibrate it. However, this is the case with most expensive incubators. You are expected to calibrate them at least. I keep a thermometer in my cheap ones at all times and adjust accordingly.

So whats the temperature andthe humidity for the 56 eggs

[@reaganskopp]

That really depends on your hatching method and species. You can look up general settings and check out dry hatch for a second option

Hello plz my incubator temperature become L36 and water on 50 an incubator produce sound tun tun

[@reaganskopp]

Sorry not sure how to assist. Maybe send it back if it is still beeping at 50%

[@micaelavillagarcia5345]

Hi again. I was hoping you could help me with my incubator since you gave me a great advice weeks ago. When will the eggs start hatching? Because they’re on day 19 and there’s no sign of cracking. I’m really worried. Please help me.

[@reaganskopp]

If they are chicken eggs day 21. You might see a tiny hole in the egg a day earlier. But usually mine were say 21-22. It is hard to be patient but once they start hatching don’t mess with them. Good luck!

[@micaelavillagarcia5345]

@@reaganskopp Ok thanks!! I’m very grateful. 😊

[@carolyn9647]

Do you know what the beeping is for?

[@reaganskopp]

One of the settings threshold gets triggered and starts it beeping. I go over tips to make it stop in the video.

[@JESUSROMAN1993]

What are the temperatures you are running for every setting

[@reaganskopp]

It depend on what you want to hatch and how your machine is calibrated. That’s why I really stress you have to calibrate the machine and test the best settings for you.

Thank you for all the information. Found this video on google when I just bought my incubator and the alarm just goes of and at te same time the water level goes totally banans. I am so greateful, but at the same time horrified. Cause the temperature in mine is not stable. It goes from -1,2 up to +0,2 diffrence inside at different places. So I don't know ow to calubrate that. Again, thanks!! Ths helped me a lot. Greetings from Sweden :)

[@reaganskopp]

So glad it was helpful. Mine has a shift as well. Especially at night as I live in an old drafty house. So far they still hatch. You can regulate it more by adding some insulation like a towel or styrofoam. Just make sure you calibrate it with that in place! I figure it’s like a chicken. The hen moves around, hops off the eggs, it rains, it’s sunny, etc. Of course, a perfectly stable temp would be great BUT eggs are pretty resilient and can deal with some shifts.

Hello what Is the temperature set during the 1-18th day

[@reaganskopp]

99.5 F or 37.5 C

[@kylebentz]

Thanks for your video, super helpful. I have never dry hatched eggs, have you had much success doing that?

[@reaganskopp]

I wouldn’t say we exactly dry hatch. Mostly because we are usually running the AC and our humidity is lower than even suggested by dry hatch methods. But we keep a low humidity method. Kind of a modified dry hatch method. Had pretty good success so far just add a little water when the humidity dips below 35-40%. And then shoot for a 65-70% for hatch. Only issue we have run into is if we HAVE to get chicks out during the hatch. When you run the humidity low you have to be on it if you have to crack it open during hatch for any reason.

Factory reset how?
