I use the same flashlight for candling eggs, however, I cut a dishwashing sponge (the kind with no scourer) in half and cut a 3/4" hole in the center of the sponge. Place the sponge on top of the flashlight and then the egg. Works awesome 👍
I have this same incubator. you cannot trust the temperature reading. Mine reads 3 degrees celsius BELOW the actual temperature. There are instructions for how to calibrate the incubator, but they are so poorly written that it took me a long time to figure out what to do. If you use this incubator, always check the actual temperature with a reliable thermometer.
I agree with the instruction part.. I checked temp with a small thermometer on the first hatched. and it only varied by a degree if not opened, but as we see by the comments there are some bad units out there.
I hear IncuBrght is used by several quail/ chicken farmers. It is hand held and you can keep the eggs in the tray and candel them one by one.Great review, I would still use a hydrometer, just saying. I like that it had a temp alarm!
Yes I have another batch in there now and the eight chicks that hatched out our five weeks old now and doing good I just recorded an update video on them I'll post it tomorrow and yes the humidity is always a concern to me but I can't complain
I did at first. I used one made for a reptile cage and it stayed within norms as long as I filled about every other day.. Did not worry about it after the first week
@@TheNoobsReviews oh so dry hatch would be a no no on this one. I have 2 nurture right 360 and allows me to do dry hatch at 32. Well, guess I’ll just this one (arriving tomorrow) for conventional. Thanks so much
I have this unit and another one. I really don't care too much for this one, you cant see what the humidity is like you can on my other one and the temp always says the same thing no matter what so not sure if its correct or not. Its OK but my other one is way better, it was more expensive but worth it to me. This is of course an ok back up unit.
It's a decent unit for the money I did check the temp and it seemed to be holding correctly but you're right about the humidity no real gauge on that. I think that's why I was so surprised to get eight out of nine.
Mine is a pain I can't figure out how to calibrate it it does not hold proper temperature or humidity and so far as cost me close to 100 eggs it's an absolute peace oh s***
I would guess there is a bad egg in every unit out there. Pardon the pun. would check to see if they would send you a new unit out. Sorry it did not work out.

I will try that. I just hatched another batch this weekend. Going to upload a vid on it later today. Thanks for watching
Cool

Titan High Density Candler - It looks weird but it's the best candler I've used.
I will try it next spring. thanks.

I have the same incubator where does the water go, they also sent a water bottle I need help
Does it push forward and backward by it self or we should make it spin or whatever it does?
So I have one But what should the temperature be?
Set on 38
Can you show how you set the temperature
I'm surprised you didn't have any get vacuumed inside the egg opening it during hatch time
Hello, I have one of them. How much do I need to adjust the temperature in the first days?
I never adjusted it. leave at 38 for the duration
Damn it's 82.99 now. It's gone up in value over the past few weeks.
I'm not real surprised everything seems to be going that way.. I guess it's chick hatching season that's why they're going up..
eBay
It's a copy of the janoel 24 - best value for money Incubator
Got mine on eBay for 30 bucks 😉
What temperature do you put it at??
38
Did you put a eggs from supermarket? Free Range chicken eggs 🥚 or fresh chicken eggs?
fresh
@@GreetingsfromtheLord fresh..
What kind are they? Great job.
Looks like we got three full buff Brahma the other five. are orpington Brahma cross
Are you keeping it at 37.5 or 38 throughout the days
At 38.. I actually have my first set of duck eggs in there as we speak I have 10 eggs in there
How about humidity? Do you have to get a separate gauge ?
I did at first. I used one made for a reptile cage and it stayed within norms as long as I filled about every other day.. Did not worry about it after the first week
@@TheNoobsReviews it doesn’t have humidity setting?
@@TheNoobsReviews I hope it won’t keep beeping as I plan on doing a dry hatching.
@@janlogue9841 I tried but dry hatch rate was 50% no beeping

Can you let the chiks live in there the first weeks because im planning to get chiken but i don't know how chiks live
Hi
i had a few off these incubators i find that it only gets warm one end
There does seem to be a slight difference in temp on one side but did not seem to effect the hatch rate.
Where do I put the water
In the center under the egg rack
How water work
