In this video I explain the basics on setting up Harris Farms Nurture Right 360 egg incubator. For a PDF of the instruction manual click here (or copy/paste) via Tractor Supply Website: media.tractors...
Thank you for this video. Very helpful. Quick question if you don’t mind. If I lose power, will it reset to initial settings once the power comes back on?
Honestly I can’t remember if it does. I haven’t encouraged that scenario yet. Once the power is back on you can check the days and temp by holding the menu button. Just adjust with the +/- buttons if you need to. I always write on the calendar or put it in my phone when I start and when the hatch is expected, just in case.
I have a question for you, I am on Day 28 with hatching ducks, I think I need another day for the hatch, will the incubator automatically shut off at midnight or will it stay on until I turn it off? A speedy answer would be great!
Fabulous video! Truly appreciate it. Thank you. I do have a problem that maybe you or someone can help me with. My humility is not reaching 48% it only 37% my vent is completely closed I’ve been running it for almost 10 hours now A side only with water but it’s not helping. Any ideas are welcomed. Thank you
Do you have the Red plug in side B of the water hole? Other than that you might try moving it to a different location. Depending on the room temp/humidity it might be harder to achieve desired results.
yeah it likely will. I would put a piece of tape over it maybe? or perhaps stuff something in the hole, maybe a cotton ball? just keep an eye on the temp and humidity. It probably won't make that much of a difference, but...even a little difference can cause problems with hatching.
@@GR19082 If you mean it is day 1 as in 20 days left you can press the + and - buttons together it should turn. That’s how you test it. Press Menu and - together for 5 seconds to reset the incubator. It should turn automatically when needed. But press + and - together to make sure it turns. If you mean day 1 as in they are about to hatch then they are not supposed to turn. In the Info section of the video there is a link to the PDF instructions.
If you are starting a new batch check that it’s on day 21. Hold the menu until the temp flashes and press it agains to show the days. If it’s on day 4 (maybe even day 3) the light turns off because the eggs don’t get turned.
Can you adjust how much the turner will actually turn? Because we are thinking about using this for quail eggs but since they are smaller I’m not sure if it will turn them too much
You’ll get a ton of answers on this so I’ll just tell you what I do - I leave them in the incubator until they are dry. Usually a few hours, and then I move them to the brooder. They will fluff out when they are dry. I do this to give the other chicks room to hatch. It will get crowded fast with 15-22 eggs hatching.
Yup, I've read that online as well. This is what I mean by a thousand different answers. I took them out as they were dry and the other eggs were not hatched yet. Never had an issue and they all hatched. But that's not to say it will be the case every time. Obviously someone shrink wrapped their chicks in order to come up with the "leave them till they all hatch" method.
The vent is used to control the humidity level. So open or closed is up to the humidity. 50-55% days 1-18. 70-75% days 18-hatch. Adjust the vent as needed.
I'm trying to hatch pigeon eggs. For pigeons it's 18 days. 3 days before hatch, it goes into lockdown and the humidity is supposed to be 70%. I removed the B plug, opened the vent all the way and added water to both A and B, however, I have not been able to stabilize the 70%. I have added more warm water to the A and B to the point that I cannot add anymore and I don't want to risk the eggs by removing the lid to drain out the water if to much was added. Any suggestions on how to stabilize the humidity at 70%?
If you are are trying to raise the humidity you would close the vent. If you are trying to lower you would open the vent. Raising is a lot easier than lowering in my experience. But you are trying to lower it and the vent is completely open you can use a turkey baster (just something I have used) and suck out some water from the fill points. If you are trying to raise it and closing the vent does not work the only option I can think of is to add a little container of water in to the incubator. I’ve never had a problem trying to raise the humidity, mine has always been keeping it lower.
You adjust the humidity with the vent. And make sure just side A is filled with water. You can also adjust how much water you fill in there. For example if the vent is wide open and the humidity is still high then don’t add so much water. But you’ll want to monitor it more so it doesn’t run out of water.
I have not done anything but chicken eggs. Some googling says 56% humidity for 18-21 days. You should definitely verify that with your own research. That low humidity will just require filling one of the 2 water troughs
You can try to suck it out with something like a turkey baster. If the humidity is where it’s supposed to be probably wouldn’t hurt to leave it. It will deplete quickly I would think, then just add to A only. Just keep an eye on it because it could take several hours for the humidity to rise.
My humidity for chicken eggs is at 70 today. Can't get it down. Yesterday afternoon was at 47-55. Any help/info would be much appreciated. Stayed consistent normal range until yesterday. Days to hatch 15 at the moment. First time using this as we just purchased it not this last weekend, but weekend before last.
If it’s cool weather outside and raining, like say 50-60 and rainy outside then it will get higher. There’s really nothing you can do but open the vent. If you are desperate you can remove some water from the tray. Take a turkey baster and suck it out or something similar but not all of it because then you will have zero humidity. Doing this is very tricky because the humidity will fluctuate like crazy with just a little water taken out. So you really have to check it constantly. I’ve hatched with the humidity never going below mid 60’s the whole time.
@@jbones2121 so very helpful. Yes raining yesterday and harder today. Thank you so much. Will give these suggestions a go. Turned air on in house as it removes humidity. It came down to 66. Thank you so much for quick response. Much appreciated.
@@comicalhomestead I've never been able to keep the perfect humidity. It usually runs high from 5-10%. A few times even more. You just do the best you can and work with what you have.

check for cold solder joints. ALL low voltage items often show up as cold solder joints. if identified, all you need to do is a light touch of a tinned point, no solder, and make the contact all good.
1:11 what does that mean? I just bought my first incubator for my mom and the box says this thing is suppose to spin the tray but it hasnt done it all in the 5 hours I've had the thing. The temp is at 99 and the humidity is 50. I have the little window open half way. I know its gonna be trial and error but I would really appreciate any tips. This is basically an early mothers day gift for my mom.
Hold the plus and - button down together to see if the spinner actually works. If it does then the egg turner is working. The reason why it might not spin is if it is set on day 18-21. It dos not spin in the last 3 days. If you are not in the middle of a hatch press the Menu and - button for more than 5 seconds and it will reset to factory settings.
@@abominablesnowman64 that’s probably true while it is incubating. I’ve never timed it or looked it up. But once you start the eggs just make sure the turner is on as indicated by the light. It should be on automatically after you reset it to 99.5 degrees and 21 days.
@@jbones2121 thank you. My only other problem now is the humidity is constantly on 49. I've tried to raise it to at least 53 but it wont go up at all. Not sure I can do anything about that. Even having the little window closed doesnt do anything. Unless thats how its suppose to be but the instructions say chicken eggs should be between 50 and 55. first 18 days.
@@abominablesnowman64 49 is fine. The only way to adjust the humidity is to close or open the vent. You can add more water to part B but that risks the humidity being way to high. My last hatch the humidity ran 60% the entire time and I hatched 15 eggs.
i did exactly what you said but when i hit display it still says 00?!?!?! i loaded the blasted thing three days ago and realized it hasn't been turning. that was when i realized it never accepted the days i entered!
You can hold the “Menu” and “-“ button together for more than 5 seconds to reset it to factory settings 21 days, 99.5 temp. Then press and hold menu until the temp starts flashing. Press it again and it will flash the days. Use the minus button to lower the days to 18. Then press the menu again to lock it in. You should be fine still. Just make sure the egg turning light is on after resetting it to factory. Press and hold the minus and plus buttons together to test the egg turner is working.
@@jbones2121 thank you for the response, i lost the instructions to the incubator and my memory isn't the best when it comes to button pushing... which is precisely why i'm back again lol The last hatch (duck) was near perfect (including the three washed and refrigerated eggs - i still had a few empty slots and felt like experimenting. all but four or five eggs successfully, some of which weren't fertile and were discarded early on. so here i am again, going to try and hatch a few more ducks before they stop laying. i may have to buy another incubator because i'm really liking this one, it just doesn't hold as many as i'd like 😅😅
@@Hy-Brasil congrats on the near perfect hatch! If you open the description of the video you will find a link to the Tractor Supply Website and the PDF of the incubator instructions.
Assuming you are hatching chickens - day 1 - 18 a humidity of 48-55% is fine. To achieve this use the red plug and plug up side B of the water port, only fill side A. It will take a few hours to stabilize. You can also make slight adjustments to the grey air port on top of the unit to get your desired humidity. Adjust it and wait a few hours for it to stabilize. Day 19-21 remove the red plug from B side and fill B side with water. Keep A & B side full. This will bring the humidity up to around 70% for the hatch, you also want to open the grey air vent on top of the unit fully at this time.
You only want to fill both reservoirs on day 18 for chicken eggs. Fill the A slot and close the top vent all the way. Make sure the red plug is in B port correctly. Make sure the top unit is setting on the bottom correctly. Make sure it’s on and set at 99.5 degrees. Where do you have it placed? In your home? Outside somewhere? It shouldn’t have a problem getting to the desired humidity. If you fill both A & B reservoirs at the start you won’t be able to reach the necessary humidity on day 18. OR, it would be too much humidity on days 1-18
@@el_chicano2097 I would close the vent some then. Make sure side A is full of water and close the vent until the humidity gets where you need it. Then you can adjust the vent to keep it there.
@@el_chicano2097 just make small adjustments. And wait an hr so so for it to adjust. I think during the first 18 days you just want 50-55% so it’s not that far off.
@@curtherman2708 ok good. If you unplug it and plug it back in sometimes that will reset the days counter. And keep in mind days 18-21 the turner won’t turn and you should remove it on day 18
My NR 360 is majorly defective after 3 successfully hatches! It is trash now! When I set up for my 4th hatch the turner never turned on and I had to call Manna Pro for help. They gave me instructions to get it to turn on. Before this 4th hatch attempt, the turner always worked automatically after just pluging the unit in and testing it to make sure it was turning according to the directions. The next problem that occurred on this 4th hatch attempt, after allowing the incubator to go through the warm up stage, the temperature and humidity readings on the incubator's thermometer/humidity reader was off. The humidity keep jumping up and down from 45% - 65%. The temperature inside the unit was reading between 97.4° and 98.7° even though the computer on the unit was reading 99.5°. The unit never warmed up to the 99.5° needed for hatching. I finally got the humidity to achieve a desired % but I could not get the unit to respond to the instructions given for temperature adjustments. I pressed and held the "MENU" button for 3 seconds only but the 99.5° on the unit never started to flash after the beep. It would not respond to me pressing the "+" button. The only thing it did do was show me the days to hatch. I called MP AGAIN. They asked for my copy of my receipt when I purchased the incubator in December of 2021, and if within a year, they would send a refund. MPro said they would send me a refund by mid-June, 2022. This was appreciated but my once healthy 18 eggs that were showing the very early stage of life and ready to be incubated have now all died! What a disappointment after collecting, setting, doing the final check on the eggs, and several days of aggrevation trying to desperately work to get the incubator right to no avail! I am quite upset at my loss. I much rather have had the wonderful thrilling experience of incubating my chick's than getting a refund for what...to start the process all over again. I now have to go through the daunting task of trying to find a truly reliable small incubator and start all over with the egg preparation. This will take at least over 3 months before I am able to incubate chicks again! Can anyone suggest a really reliable small incubator? The Nurture Right 360° may have worked for 3 hatches but I was expecting a much better longevity on this unit. I suggest that anyone wanting to purchase one of these NR360...think again and read all the comments on every unit that you are contemplating on buying. A Very Disappointed Customer
That sucks about all the trouble. Sorry to read that. Check out the Brinsea brand. Expensive but decent reviews. You might try asking your local co-op for suggestions too. And online message boards. Back yard chickens dot com is a very good site.
It shouldn’t be at 90 for chicken eggs. I’m pretty sure that’s the low temp alarm. You can hit the menu button to turn off the alarm when it’s going off. But you might have other problems if it won’t go above 90
You can’t get the light to work? As far as I know just pushing the button should do the trick. You can also use a flashlight in a dark room to candle the eggs.
@@gahillbilly6566 is this the first day you started it? The menu button will show “D-XX” for remaining days left. If you hold the Menu button for 3 seconds you will be able to adjust the temp and days. So hitting it just once real quick should show you the days left to hatch. I keep track via a calendar just as backup.
You might look into the weight difference between a parrot and a Jumbo Coturnix quail. Then, watch the quail incubation videos (maybe check out the YT channels... Slightly Rednecked and Living Traditions ... they’re both great and informative channels... they have great shows on quail and might answer questions in chat?).
while this unit has rave reviews and the USA price point is really good, just try to SOURCE the item in 2020. One source doesn't ship to Canada, the Canadian source is a scam setup and asks 3 times the price, so what's going on here??? And where exactly is "the manuf>' and I'm NOT talking about the retailer.
@@turdsandwicher Mine is coming directly from Hanna Mfg. I wish they'd have pheasant and banty egg size wheels. I may 3-D print a model. My library has a free 3-D printer and no one knows how to use it!!!!

Assuming you are hatching chickens - day 1 - 18 a humidity of 48-55% is fine. To achieve this use the red plug and plug up side B of the water port, only fill side A. It will take a few hours to stabilize. You can also make slight adjustments to the grey air port on top of the unit to get your desired humidity. Adjust it and wait a few hours for it to stabilize. Day 19-21 remove the red plug from B side and fill B side with water. Keep A & B side full. This will bring the humidity up to around 70% for the hatch, you also want to open the grey air vent on top of the unit fully at this time.

You only want to fill both reservoirs on day 18 for chicken eggs. Fill the A slot and close the top vent all the way. Make sure the red plug is in B port correctly. Make sure the top unit is setting on the bottom correctly. Make sure it’s on and set at 99.5 degrees. Where do you have it placed? In your home? Outside somewhere? It shouldn’t have a problem getting to the desired humidity. If you fill both A & B reservoirs at the start you won’t be able to reach the necessary humidity on day 18.

@@curtherman2708 ok good. If you unplug it and plug it back in sometimes that will reset the days counter. And keep in mind days 18-21 the turner won’t turn and you should remove it on day 18
My NR 360 is majorly defective after 3 successfully hatches! It is trash now! When I set up for my 4th hatch the turner never turned on and I had to call Manna Pro for help. They gave me instructions to get it to turn on. Before this 4th hatch attempt, the turner always worked automatically after just pluging the unit in and testing it to make sure it was turning according to the directions. The next problem that occurred on this 4th hatch attempt, after allowing the incubator to go through the warm up stage, the temperature and humidity readings on the incubator's thermometer/humidity reader was off. The humidity keep jumping up and down from 45% - 65%. The temperature inside the unit was reading between 97.4° and 98.7° even though the computer on the unit was reading 99.5°. The unit never warmed up to the 99.5° needed for hatching. I finally got the humidity to achieve a desired % but I could not get the unit to respond to the instructions given for temperature adjustments. I pressed and held the "MENU" button for 3 seconds only but the 99.5° on the unit never started to flash after the beep. It would not respond to me pressing the "+" button. The only thing it did do was show me the days to hatch. I called MP AGAIN. They asked for my copy of my receipt when I purchased the incubator in December of 2021, and if within a year, they would send a refund. MPro said they would send me a refund by mid-June, 2022. This was appreciated but my once healthy 18 eggs that were showing the very early stage of life and ready to be incubated have now all died! What a disappointment after collecting, setting, doing the final check on the eggs, and several days of aggrevation trying to desperately work to get the incubator right to no avail! I am quite upset at my loss. I much rather have had the wonderful thrilling experience of incubating my chick's than getting a refund for what...to start the process all over again. I now have to go through the daunting task of trying to find a truly reliable small incubator and start all over with the egg preparation. This will take at least over 3 months before I am able to incubate chicks again! Can anyone suggest a really reliable small incubator? The Nurture Right 360° may have worked for 3 hatches but I was expecting a much better longevity on this unit. I suggest that anyone wanting to purchase one of these NR360...think again and read all the comments on every unit that you are contemplating on buying.
A Very Disappointed Customer
That sucks about all the trouble. Sorry to read that. Check out the Brinsea brand. Expensive but decent reviews. You might try asking your local co-op for suggestions too. And online message boards. Back yard chickens dot com is a very good site.
Mines keeps beepin when it hits 90 degrees i need help
It shouldn’t be at 90 for chicken eggs. I’m pretty sure that’s the low temp alarm. You can hit the menu button to turn off the alarm when it’s going off. But you might have other problems if it won’t go above 90
How many eggs it can hold
22 chicken eggs
The light want flash what am I doing wrong
You can’t get the light to work? As far as I know just pushing the button should do the trick. You can also use a flashlight in a dark room to candle the eggs.
Does it tell you what day it's on?
Yes it will count down the days.
@@jbones2121 how do I access that.. mine just shows temp and humidity.. and when i hit the menu shows 21 days 💁♂️ thanks for replyin
@@gahillbilly6566 is this the first day you started it? The menu button will show “D-XX” for remaining days left. If you hold the Menu button for 3 seconds you will be able to adjust the temp and days. So hitting it just once real quick should show you the days left to hatch. I keep track via a calendar just as backup.
The temp is still 100 ???
Yes, 99-102 the entire time. 99.5 is ideal. but it can fluctuate a tiny bit higher.
Anyone doing parrot eggs? Love birds, Indian ring neck, cocktiels? Please share info.
God bless
You might look into the weight difference between a parrot and a Jumbo Coturnix quail. Then, watch the quail incubation videos (maybe check out the YT channels... Slightly Rednecked and Living Traditions ... they’re both great and informative channels... they have great shows on quail and might answer questions in chat?).
while this unit has rave reviews and the USA price point is really good, just try to SOURCE the item in 2020. One source doesn't ship to Canada, the Canadian source is a scam setup and asks 3 times the price, so what's going on here??? And where exactly is "the manuf>' and I'm NOT talking about the retailer.
I ordered one the other day from amazon.com istead of.ca. It was about $100 cheaper. But yes still pretty pricey.
@@turdsandwicher Mine is coming directly from Hanna Mfg. I wish they'd have pheasant and banty egg size wheels. I may 3-D print a model. My library has a free 3-D printer and no one knows how to use it!!!!
@@thedwightguy I've got eggs in mine now. I really like it so far.
My egg runner is not turning
Press the + and - buttons together to test the turning. May have to hold the buttons. And make sure the tray is installed correctly. Maybe power it down and back on, unplug it plug it in. I’ve never had that problem.
