How do I test egg turning capabilities

[@tonytawk718]

This is a very good incubator ,,i have tested it 7+baches ,,, you have to calibrate it ,, you have to switch the fan to blow away from the eggs .,,, you have to set the max temp setting 38.5DegC,,,, best hatching temp i found in 37.5Deg C

[@danettegreen1348]

Can you show how to put water in this the first time? I still can't see where the water line is, plus I purchase this used so I don't have a water bottle, how can I get water in there without the water bottle?

[@donnahardee9745]

You can get little water bottles at Wilton supply inn Walmart, xs at least you used to be able to.

[@donnahardee9745]

I would measure the water first, my bottle has 50 to 300 ml markings on it.

[@VV-vg5vc]

Hi how tu turn off rotation?

[@farmbabylife9618]

How much water do I need to put in it ? Thank you

[@mkz7463]

Oh ....... bro but how can we set days ? humidity? tray turning off? which button for those?

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

Days can only be reset to zero. No option for specific days. As for humidity it’s in the book how to set as well as the temperature. If you need specifics I’ll post a quick video to show how.

[@nannynocker6942]

​@HomesteadingBartramStyle mine won't reset days I've had it unplugged for over a week from my first use and it's still saying 31 days what in God's name do I do??

[@michellerahmoeller191]

How do you know how much water is in it? I can’t see the water in mine.

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

The best way that I’ve found is to use a small bright light and shine down from the top. Usually I can see the water line in the unit on each channel. It’s best if the egg turners are tilted away from the side you’re using to view it.

[@Jennifer-tc9ll]

Approximately how much water the first time filling ? Is it like 1 whole bottle that comes with the machine ?

[@mariaguzman5503]

My dad has one something like this one, he lost the manual. His keeps making a beeping sound with the fan symbol showing. What do you think it could be?

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

Beeping with fan symbol flashing means that the fan is alarming normally. Check to make sure fan is actually spinning. If it is then most likely cause is the fan has a speed sensor and it’s probably gone out or the circuit that reads the fan speed is bad. May need to replace fan.

[@jamielovinitt]

Mine is doing the same thing and I just pulled it out of the box. It won't stop beeping 😫

[@alialadadi3995]

When should you add water?

[@waileia5830]

2-3 days

[@giftofdignity3349]

how much water are you supposed to add?

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

I put scalding hot tap water in to begin with. I normally put two of the little bottles full of water in when I start up my incubators. Usually that will go into the outside ring. Then at lockdown I’ll make sure again that the water level is sufficient in the outside ring and put two more bottles of hot water into the inner ring.

How do you re set the day count

[@bush72j]

Did you figure out how to do this?

[@willow7783]

how do i reset the day count?

yes please

[@adrianocadorna5576]

I want to buy 56pcs duck egg automatic incubator, how much is the price?

[@donnhardee2595]

i still havent figured out where to put the water. I have a ddh 42s. I put the water in the back hole and it worked ok so far, I just want to see if thats correct. thanks

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

If the incubator is made like this one, there is a hole near the back corner on the Right side is where mine is at. you insert the bottle tip into that hole to put the water in.

[@donnahardee9745]

@@HomesteadingBartramStyle thank you I've been doing it right then. Just started it yesterday and am going to let it run another three days before I put the eggs in. I may get a hydrometeor and temp reader to be on the safe side.

[@Craftsbysamantha229]

My fan light is blinking why?

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

You need to take the top off of it and verify that the fan is working. Mine always has the fan symbol moving.

[@jeweljose1707]

Is there a second part with results? I’m looking for a good incubator.

[@brandonbennett8853]

Don’t get this one , mine don’t rotate the eggs but one direction.

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

Honestly this one isn't a great one. It's a real budget model as the humidity sensor doesn't always work, but the temp sensor and heater has worked great. The rotation can be a pain as well.

[@allyciaaligour-mohammed4259]

Any help to adjust settings?

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

Yes I sure can help. The settings take a couple steps to change. Depending upon what's causing your alarm to go off. Typically it's due to the humidity most of the time from my experience. Addition of HOT water to the water channels inside will fix the problem. However, if you need to change the settings the way to do it is as follows: Press and hold the *SET* button for about 3 seconds till ( *AL* ) shows where the TEMP is located. Then press the *+* button multiple times till ( *AS* ) shows - That's the Humidity Alarm setting. Then press the *SET* button once to show the setting. Use the * +* or * -* key to adjust and then press the *SET* button once to confirm your setting. (I find setting mine down to about the *38* % works well for me till the eggs have had enough time to soak up the moisture they need in the beginning. After that when it finally normalizes, I set it back up to the *45* % mark and try to hold mine at about *50* % till day 18 and then push up to *70* % if possible. The other settings are changed in the similar manner. If you just press and release the *SET* button one time it allows you to change the TEMP of the unit. Here are the listings for the other settings that you can change... *AS* = Humidity Alarm *CA* = Calibrating Temp Sensor - Use this if you find that the temp reading is WAY off using a human digital thermometer. *HS* = Temperature High Set - Automatically set when you change the TEMP *LS* = Temperature LOW Set - Automatically set when you change the TEMP *AL* = LOW Temperature Alarm - Factory set to 1 deg Celcius below your SET TEMP *AH* = High Temperature Alarm - Factory set to 1 deg Celcius above your SET TEMP These are all the settings that are available. If you happen to have low temp going off, Use the bottom Styrofoam packing and set the unit back into it to help. It's how I run both of mine to help the unit keep the cost of running down. It's a quiet unit so keep this inside of a TEMP Controlled building. Running it outside or in a barn type place isn't advised. Let me know if you need any further help and I'll post a video soon to show the settings as well just for future reference. :)

How to factory reset. I want to reset the days to zero؟

[@stacymorris8511]

Me too

[@chrisupshaw2570]

I am having trouble setting the days on my incubator. Can you explain?

[@tonyatoomey5244]

Me too! Did you figure out what the settings should be? Can you share the info?

[@bush72j]

How do you reset the days on this?

[@protractgravity1940]

While pressing the egg turning button on the left, unplug the unit while still holding the egg turning button, plug it in again. It will then be factory reset.

[@edgarrivera6012]

This incubator only hatch the egg of the warm middle, don't hatch the eggs of the cold corners.

How to remove water

[@-robo-]

I am looking for an English User Manual PDF and a replacement humidity sensor. Please.

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

The user manual that comes with the units i bought were in english. However, some of the settings information isn't the best in the world. The replacement humidity sensor, I'm not sure about. Contacting the company that sold it may be easiest to get one.

[@-robo-]

@@HomesteadingBartramStyle My unit did not come with a user manual. I did manage to find the "identical" replacement unit, however it cost 50% of what I paid for the entire unit to begin with. I just hot glued a battery powered temp/humidity unit to the center of the lid. If I get ambitious I may build a Raspberry Pi with WiFi for remote monitoring.. but that's a lot like work lol.

[@utoobgavemecancer8635]

Instead of all that work just get a govee and blue tooth it to your phone.

[@annayudin290]

Where did you purchase this at? Can you post a link please

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

I purchased my units on Amazon. It is sold under multiple brands. Just search for the OPPSDecor 56 Egg Incubator. I’m going to do another video tomorrow. Setting it up with at least 3 dozen more rare breed chicken eggs.

[@herbalcookingvlog7011]

Good

[@argolarionov2741]

When does the light have to be on

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

I'm not sure what light you refer to here. This unit has no light to candle, however other models do. In those models you only turn the candle lights on to check the development in the eggs then turn it off.

[@BEDLAMITE-5280ft.]

Will this work for quail eggs?

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

Yes the openings in the bottom of the rails are small enough to hold quail eggs.

[@BEDLAMITE-5280ft.]

@@HomesteadingBartramStyle sweet I just got mine in the mail and my quail eggs are on the way, I was worried it was too big for quail eggs. Thank you so much for getting back to me! And so quickly! Thank you thank you

Results?

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

This far I can say that I've had nothing but awesome luck with this incubator. The temp settings and humidity control is great, it's auto rotation system works just fine. We've had 4 cycles go through the two incubators we now own and from each one with good fertile eggs we've had great results. We've just hatched out 4 French Black Copper Marrans as of yesterday. We have another 30 in the second incubator that are looking really nice right now too. Temp probe on the front needs to be pushed straight down toward the bottom, but other than that these units are great. The best way to test the temp is with a digital human thermometer and put through water hole on side to get a good reading without opening the unit up. Just make sure to point the tip inside up toward the eggs area. If you purchase one, make sure to have a spare PC power cord as my second one had a fault with power cord from the start. I swapped it out and have had no issues since then. All in All we LOVE this incubator and as said, I bought a second one for our homestead use, and will probably buy a couple more in the future as well. I hope this helps. :) Thank you for he comment and I hope that you become a subscriber to the channel as well!

Thanks for the reply, and I want to buy one for myself. I wish you good luck with incubating the chickens. Greetings from Bosnia and Herzegovina.

[@HomesteadingBartramStyle]

You're welcome! I honestly can say that these are great small incubators. They will allow you to hatch many different types of eggs, the egg trays allow for very small eggs as well as larger. I'd say turkey would be the biggest that I would hatch. Goose eggs are a bit too big for the trays, but you can always hand turn them without the auto rotator. If you've any questions after getting one, feel free to contact us here with questions. We love to help people solve problems. :) Have a great day!

[@allyciaaligour-mohammed4259]
