TURNING EGGS
The Mini Advance turning system has three modes of operation:
ON – The turning system will alternately roll the eggs left and right irrespective of the Day Countdown. A revolving line symbol “/” is
shown in the corner of the display.
AUTO – The turning system will alternately roll the eggs left and right until the Day Countdown reaches 2. Turning will then automatically
be switched to OFF and an “O” will flash in the corner of the display.
OFF – The turning system is switched off irrespective of the Day Countdown. This is used for hatching purposes. An “O” will flash in the
corner of the display.
The length of time interval between turns may be adjusted and the angle the eggs are turned through may also be adjusted to suit
different size eggs. The turning motor runs for a set time and this time (in seconds) can be adjusted to achieve the appropriate turn angle
for the eggs.
Larger eggs will require a longer turn to achieve the same angle as smaller ones. Use the chart below for a simple guide. Match the
TURN ANG setting to the diameter of the eggs.
This should give a turn angle of between 90 and 120 degrees.
If eggs of mixed sizes are being incubated it will be necessary to compromise the turning angle. In general, if the larger eggs turn through
90 degrees (1/4 of a turn) then the smaller ones may turn through twice this with no problem. Parrot-like species may benefit from larger
turns in the first 10 days of incubation.
If the turning mode is switched to ON remember to stop the turning 2 days before the eggs are due to hatch.
