Surehatch Incubators have been designed for easy operation to produce the best possible
hatch rates
taking all the variables of successful incubation into account.
All Surehatch incubators and hatchers have been tested in our factory and are made to
high quality standards.
Ultimately the success of your hatchery operation lies in the hands of the
hatchery manager/user and the quality of the hatching eggs. It is therefore critically important that
the hatchery manager ensures that he/she follows the best recommended practices for successful
incubation.
The information provided in this user manual aims to help ensure optimal functioning of the incubator
to achieve the best possible incubation results. In addition to the contents of this user manual we also
recommend that you further your knowledge of incubation by studying additional hatchery
management info available on the internet.
NOTE:
It is recommended that you operate the incubator with a small quantity of
inexpensive eggs to be assured of your operating procedures and the performance of the
incubator before attempting to hatch large quantities of eggs or expensive eggs.
Success in incubation has 3 main pillars which determines hatching results
– these are:
1) The incubator (That is our part)
2) The quality of the hatching eggs (That is up to the hen and cock)
3) The inputs/management of the entire process (That is you)
All 3 pillars need to work together to produce a successful hatch. Below shows the interaction of all
the variables which determine incubation success:
