9.3 - Information regarding correct incubation: eggs of all exotic birds
Temperature to maintain during incubation: 37.0°C
Temperature to maintain in the last 3 days before hatching: 36.5°C
Refer to the following table by keeping in mind that incubation varies according to the species. For detailed
information regarding special species, consult the relative texts.
PARROTS Incubation time Incubation humidity
HATCHING
(last 3 days)
Amazon species 24 - 29 days Fill 1 tray of water Also fill the second tray with
water.
Do not turn the eggs in the
last three days before
hatching.
Ara 26 - 28 days Fill 1 tray of water
Macaw 26 - 28 days Fill 1 tray of water
Lovebirds 22 - 24 days Fill 1 tray of water
African grey parrots 28 days Fill 1 tray of water
Eclectus parrots 28 days Fill 1 tray of water
SUMMARY: During incubation, maintain temperature at 37.0°C and fill only one tray of water.
In the last 3 days before expected hatching, the eggs must not be turned any longer, they must be laid on the hatching
grid, and humidity must be increased by filling the second tray as well. Set the temperature at 36.5°C.
The incubation days table is indicative, it is recommended to leave the incubator on for 2 or 3 days more than the
indicated deadline to allow laggards to hatch.
9.4 - Incubation of palmiped eggs (goose, duck, etc.)
From the tenth day of incubation to the last three days before hatching, open the incubator once a day and let
the eggs cool down for 15/20 minutes. Before repositioning the cover plate spray a thin layer of drinking water.
ATTENTION: NEVER MOISTEN THE EGGS WHEN THEY ARE STILL WARM, WAIT FOR THEM TO COOL DOWN.
During this operation, the two electrical containers, both power supply and egg turning unit, must be
disconnected.
10 – Periodic egg inspection during incubation (candling)
Candling is a complicated and delicate operation that may result in errors and eliminating fecundated eggs. Since
it is optional, we advise not to perform it if one has no experience and to proceed with incubation. Otherwise, the
incubated eggs may be periodically inspected by candling. This operation must be performed in a dark room,
using a concentrated beam of light (the egg candler is available on the website
www.borotto.com ), following the
table below:
Species 1st inspection 2nd inspection 3rd inspection
Hen at 8 days at 11 days at 18 days
Pheasant at 8 days at 12 days at 20 days
Guinea fowl at 8 days at 13 days at 23 days
Turkey at 8 days at 13 days at 25 days
Grey Partridge / partridge at 8 days at 12 days at 20 days
Quail at 8 days at 13 days at 20 days
Peacock at 9 days at 14 days at 25 days
Goose at 9 days at 15 days at 27 days
Mallard and wild duck at 9 days at 13 days at 24 days
Muscovy duck at 10 days at 15 days at 30 days
