2. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND DATA
2A - PRODUCT’S DESCRIPTION
The ET incubator by River Systems
®
is designed to hatch chicks of hen, pheasant, guinea fowl, quail, partridge,
grey partridge, rock partridge, turkey, palmipeds (goose, mallard, all breeds of duck, etc.), peacock, pigeon,
exotic birds and birds of prey.
The heat necessary for incubation is generated by a heating element controlled by a state-of the-art digital
PID microcomputer controller, which allows to adjust the average internal temperature thanks to the keys on
the display, in a constant and precise manner. A fan impeller performs the ventilation, evenly distributing the
hot and humid air. Thanks to the water contained in the basins at the bottom of the incubator, natural surface-
humidification takes place. The basins are filled through the two external openings, without needing to open
the machine.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC INCUBATOR
INCUBATOR WITH EGG TURNING UNIT
It is equipped with a semi-automatic system
for the inclination of the eggs, which can be
activated from the outside thanks to a titling
handle connected to the egg tray at the base of
the incubator.
It is equipped with an automatic system for the
inclination of the eggs that fulfills a complete cycle
every 4 hours, which works from the outside
thanks to a motor.
3. EGG SELECTION AND STORAGE FOR INCUBATION
• It is important to note that eggs that have travelled can have hatching rates below 50% due to:
- Stress;
- Vibrations;
- Sudden temperature changes;
- Asphyxiation of embryos caused by occlusive packaging.
• Should it be necessary to use eggs that have traveled, let them rest for at least 24 hours in an egg tray,
with their point downwards before incubating them.
• Choose eggs from parent stock that are well developed, well fed and healthy because some domestic and
wild poultry diseases are transmitted from hens to eggs, and can cause the death of the embryo.
• Parent stock mustn’t be blood-related: males must come from a different source; interbreeding can
produce eggs with weak embryos destined to die in the hatching phase, or, if they do hatch, they will be
vulnerable animals with poor health.
• To have a higher percentage of fertile eggs, pay attention to the ideal age of the breeding animals, keeping
in mind that the ideal age varies according to the species (for example, it must be 2 to 4 years old for the
hens, while the roosters must be changed every year). It is also necessary to respect the correct ratios
between males and females and to establish a suitable environment to respect the animals’ well-being.
• The embryo starts developing before the hen lays the egg; a newly laid fertilised egg can be compared
to a 5 day old baby. After laying, embryonic development stops and can resume, in the case of artificial
incubation, within after 7 days.
The following rules will help obtain adequate eggs for incubation:
1. Collect the eggs often, possibly early in the morning and by noon, in order to prevent them from being
exposed to direct light, ultraviolet rays and high temperatures.
2. Never store the eggs in the refrigerator.
3. Do not incubate dirty eggs: contamination causes chick mortality.
4. Wash the eggs delicately and with lukewarm water, to avoid thermal excursion. It is possible to use a
specific disinfectant that causes the physical destruction of pathogenic microorganisms of fungal, bacterial
and viral origin. Avoid brushing them, in order not to affect the outer membrane thus facilitating the entry
of bacteria.
5. Keep the eggs in a cool room with temperature b15°C (+ 59 ° F) and +18°C (+ 64,4 ° F) and humidity
of about 65-75%. In case the eggs have been, for short periods, subjected to different temperatures from
the abovementioned, make sure that they were not below +5°C (+ 41 ° F) or above +24°C (+ 75,2 ° F).
6. It is essential to keep the eggs in the egg trays with their point downwards.
7. Eggs are good for incubation from 2nd to 6th/7th day from laying. Incubating eggs older than 8 days
considerably reduces the hatching rate.
8. Eggs chosen for incubation should never be collected when the animals suffer stress from high or low
temperatures.
9. Choose eggs with normal shape: they should not be oblong, spherical, corrugated or misshapen in any
way.
10. The egg shell must not be cracked, thin, broken, soft, tapered or blue spotted (old eggs).
11. We suggest an egg candler to detect any cracked eggs, not visible to the naked eye.
12. Allow the cold eggs (from storage temperature) to warm to room temperature gradually before putting
them into the incubator. A sudden heating from +14°C (+ 57,2 ° F) to +38°C (+ 100,4 ° F) would cause
moisture on the egg shell leading to decreased hatching rates.
13. Eggs of different species need different parameters. Incubating them together is possible, but it is a delicate
process.
14. During incubation, do not insert the eggs at different times.
SUGGESTIONS
: if eggs are procured from amateur farms, check that they are registered
and in line with the current animal welfare regulations. Having good genetic material allows
to obtain animals of better size and productivity, as well as reducing the risk of incubating
eggs with high bacterial charges or diseases, with consequent poor hatching results.
IMPORTANT
: it is essential to take into account the month in which the incubation takes place,
since out-of-season fertility averages are regularly very low. In any case, keep in mind that
fertility is especially genetic. Consult graph G1 here below to observe the average embryonic
fertility based on the monthly photoperiod length of the northern hemisphere.
