@@devonswink9627That's great, congrats! Can I ask at what relative humidity you kept your eggs until lockdown? I'm having a hard time keeping my humidity under 57% with any water in it and I hear that's too high, so I'm thinking of keeping it in the 30s, like the video suggests, by leaving it dry unless it drops below 30. Thanks for any info! :)
@@jenniferhigley1385 well to be honest it’s somewhere between 30 and 60. When we notice it has dropped we add some water. Just remember in nature temperatures and humidity aren’t consistent because the hen does leave the nest occasionally. I also have a small electronic thermometer/humidity sensor at egg level so I can verify everything. It showed temperature a little cooler so I increased the temperature on the incubator to compensate. Just hatched out 15 more chicks and all were healthy. Good luck with your hatching, let me know how it works out for you. 😁
And there are many people who don’t ever add water and have good hatch rates. We live in a really humid area and ours runs high sometimes even with the vents open.
Thank you so much for the response! I live in a very dry area so was concerned about dry hatching, but we have spring humidity happening at the moment and it fluctuates quite a bit day by day. From 70 to 20 percent over the course of one day so I'm mostly using the incubator's hygrometer. I know my eggs are fertile so I'm really hoping for a good hatch rate. I have a Grovee thermometer / hygrometer but I'm concerned it won't slide with the eggs and prevent them from rotating properly. Do you have yours actually in with the eggs? Thank you again for the info! I will let you know how it goes. 😊
My grandmother told me to remove the broken shells of the hatched babies, but to leave the babies as they can go for 3 days without food or water, because their peeping will actually encourage the ones that have not yet hatched to work harder to get out and join their siblings
The hen “sings” to her eggs to encourage them to hatch too. She “talks” to them during formation so they recognize they are her chicks and she their mother. I always found that beautiful. I am incubating for the first time and didn’t think about chicks singing to their …. Clutch-mates?? Lol. That sorta makes my day.
Thank you for sharing all the valueable information with us, I have one advice to you that in the last 3-days of incubation 18-21 day is good that you tur off the turner(though th incubator stopps turning the eggs by it self any way but its good to take out the cable for the turning motor) BUT i recomend that you take out the white turning plastic device"turner" at 18 th day from the incubator to minimazing of legg injuris of the little chicks when they come oout from there eggs becuase that ecxactly what happened my with in my first hatching.
Loved it. Thank you very much. We have the same incubator, really like it. Just finished a hatch and started another one. I really learned a lot on candling. Much appreciated.
I really like my nurture right 360. I follow the directions it came with and have a good hatch rate. I do remove the turner, I don't cover it, and I follow the recommended humidity as much as I can
Excellent video!! Thanks very much for all of the great information you shared in this video. I've had chickens before but looking to hatch my own this year for the first time using the same incubator. Terrific pictures on candling and information on the different types of things we might encounter with eggs that don't hatch. I learned a lot - Thanks very much!
The nurture right 360 cost over $180 with tax, great incubator, but only lasts 2 or maybe 3 summers, if you keep it clean and dry, a teardrop of 3in1 machine oil on turner shaft helps fight rust from humidity during storage times, clean off oil when in use 😊
I think I would decide against this incubator and here's why: I suspect the rail that moves and turns the eggs can and occasionally did hang up on a burr or protrusion on the egg/s. Any amount of friction can and would stop an egg from turning. It got hung up, slid until it turned freely again and then hung up again all while you were not watching. This could have quite possibly been the reason for the egg stopping its development. The incubator that has the yellow pockets and tilts the egg constantly from side to side and in a very consistent manner seems to me the ideal way to ensure positively every egg gets turned and exactly the same way. I haven't bought one yet but this definitely helped in my decision. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for your very informative video. I have just bought one of these and watched a couple of other videos on this incubator but ñothing in depth covered in those and no real help at all. Your video is brilliant and covered everything I needed/wanted to know including candling👍😊 I'm feeling really confident on my incubating journey now. Thanks again and cheers from Tasmania 🥰
Your video was sooo helpful this is my second time first time the eggs in order didn't grow. I have taken eggs from chickens this time straight from the butt and they seem to be going good. Those images you showed were so helpful for me to know what to look for.
Great explanation, thankyou ❤ Unfortunately i am at day 15 and I kept the humidity at 70%😢 I am hoping that they didn't drown. They were supposed to hatch on April 30th, hopefully. 🐣🐤🐥
Great video! I've just borrowed the NR360 from a friend. My Q: I have a very small flock: How long can I collect eggs from the nests before I need to begin incubating them? I'm interested in collecting eggs from a few specific purebred hens before I start the batch. THX!
Thanks so much for this video . I just bought a nurture Right 360 . ( a little spooky that this video was suggested to me.) This video helped a lot . I do have a question. My instructions say to keep the humidity between 48% and 55% the first 18 days . You said you keep yours lower. Can you tell me your reason ? Thanks again
Low humidity will cause the eggs to lose too much weight, which means the air space will be larger than what is ideal. A large air space also means the chick will be smaller than normal. Small chicks are weak chicks, and weak chicks cannot always hatch on their own, and they may die just before or just after hatching. Too much moisture in the incubator prevents normal evaporation and results in a decreased hatch, but excessive moisture is seldom a problem in small incubators. Too little moisture results in excessive evaporation, causing chicks to stick to the shell sometimes and hatch crippled at hatching time. I incubate hard-to-hatch Serama and Puerto Rican Kikiriki's. Ideally I shoot for around 42% with great results. I own 7 Nurture Right 360's, BTW.
I have the same incubator but where you put the water in , on the b side I don't have the red plug , do I have to have it or can I use without the little red plug. I really enjoyed your video , it was very informative.
Thank you! May I ask what you were using to candle the eggs? It was very easy to see the embryo or lack thereof. I plan on hatching eggs for the first time this year. Also can we see your brooder set up, and how to do all of that? I know it’s a lot to ask, however you do a wonderful job of “show and tell!” Thanks again! God Bless!
Candling is super easy! While this incubator does come with a built-in egg candler I often use my regular phone flashlight and gently hold the eggs on top. It doesn’t take a powerful light to shine through, as the eggshell is only a few millimeters thick
thank you for this video very helpfull. We just reached 21 days we dont see any crack yet we did not candle prior to lockdown how ling should we wait or at this point they are bad
We got 3 chick out of our first batch. we kept it running for 25 days. Our second batch we got 14/14 i think some of them were not fertilized as our rooster was still young.
I definitely agree, but generally a healthy chick would be moving, but no movement at the moment isn’t a good enough reason to throw it out. They do have to take rests sometime
I have some quail eggs I’m hatching and I see it looks the same thing as what it showed in the video and inside my quail egg it was moving to so yeah it’s alive
If they are going into an incubator don't clean them they don't need it and if you clean them you are removing the natural germ shield eggs have that can help keep them safe while the chick develops
I have 20 eggs in my incubator. Some are starting to hatch- when can I begin taking the chicks out? Before they are all hatched? Do I wait until all are hatched?
It’s ok to open the incubator during lockdown, you just shouldn’t do it all the time. Plus after chicks hatch the humidity skyrockets because the chicks are all wet
The first few times I incubated, I didn’t remove the turner, 90% hatch rate. The next time, I removed the turner 15% hatch rate. I don’t know if that had anything to do with it, but I’m testing the process now, 4 days until hatching and I’m NOT removing the turner. We shall see.
I want to hatch conure and/or cockatiel eggs....since eggs are laid every other day...how can I manage the whole "lockdown period" thing if eggs will be hatching at diff times??
I hesitated to assist, but that advice on youtube videos was wrong for me. I now help the “ shrink wrapped” after 6? hours or more. Watched probably a dozen youtube videos on that. I agree with comment…cleaning unit with non toxic vinegar.
So I can actually answer this these new auto turners have a shut off so they don't turn anymore after a certain time but this model of incubator the turner has a separate plug you can pull out so it can't turn at all because there's no power going to the turner and no the tray doesn't hurt the chick's at all but yes if it did turn it could maybe hurt them but these things are made to be safe as possible outside of user error or misuse of the machine
@@user-lr7dk7mt2w I will say this is the first video i've watched where the turner wasn't removed on day 18. I know it stops I also saw the mat you placed at the bottome taking the turner out would make for easier cleaning. I know I will be removing mine. Thanks for replying.
@@scotlynn9287 I did forget to add I would also take out the plastic turner piece in fact I believe most incubator instructions say to take them out it does make it safer for the chick's but some people don't because you'd have to take off the lid and you might lose some humidity
I had one similar to this one, and it had holes around the edge. The chicks hatched while I was out, and one of the babies got it's head down in one of those holes, and I found it dead like that. I swore to never get one of those again. Any little hole or crack in an incubator will kill a chick that's stumbling around and has no strength to get out of it. Thanks.
hello im new to hatching babies how lng can you keep eggs out of the hatcher i was told if the eggs got cool they wont be any good plz help new to channel and this i thought to that you have to get the eggs the min you see them and get them in to a warm spot
Does the incubator stay on past the 21 day countdown? When it gets to zero does it shut off? I think my hatch may be late and I am worried it will shut off when I am not home.
In three weeks I plan to start incubating some chicken eggs for the first time. I bought this incubator and upon reading reviews and the user manual, I have some concerns and wondered if you could help... A lot of the reviews said their chicks hatched a day early.. does that mean the incubator is running too warm? Piggybacking off of that, after reading the manual, I'm concerned the room I plan to leave the incubator in won't be warm enough. We keep our home fairly cool.. is there a way you would recommend warming the room to accommodate the incubator? Wonderful video and very informative!!
I have the same incubator, curious as to how come you leave the turner in? I’m thinking as they hatch the other chicks could not jostle the eggs as much if the Turner is in, do their legs ever get stuck in the turner?
We have 2 hour and 4 hour loadshedding in South Africa. I used two hotwater bottels and covered my brooder with a dubble fleeze blanket. 21 of 30 made it and hatched. During winter.
Yep I plugged mine in yesterday and haven't heard it turn yet! Nothing said in the directions.. and my red light to the left of the display blinks continuously. Not sure why
It is supposed to blink continuously, shows it's working. I rarely am there when mine rotates, but you can follow the directions on the lid to test the turner. If you mark an egg when you place them in the incubator that will give you a visual on the movement
It's not very good but yes it's there I'd recommend only using that candler to see if the egg is a dud or not due to not being able to tell if the egg is alive or not if it's gone dark

Hello, great video, does this just turn the eggs in one direction or will it turn 180 degrees and then back 180 degrees?
You don't have to see movement...if you see large healthy veins, then the chick is alive.
I definitely agree, but generally a healthy chick would be moving, but no movement at the moment isn’t a good enough reason to throw it out. They do have to take rests sometime
I mean rests not tests
Thank you for your video ❤I just started incubating yesterday and had no idea what I was doing and this video helped tons. Thank you 🙏

Interesting you leave the turner in!
How do you prep your eggs. Do you clean your eggs? If so do you put straight in the incubator. So much information on if you clean the eggs or not.
I’ve never cleaned my eggs
There is a youtube showing a patent…spraying 3% hydrogen peroxide. To clean…might allow more oxygen for chicks.
If they are going into an incubator don't clean them they don't need it and if you clean them you are removing the natural germ shield eggs have that can help keep them safe while the chick develops
Hello your incubator very nice
TY, VERY HELPFUL, Wish me luck!
Clearly mine is missing the power cord so I am glad you showed how to plug it in. bummer

I bought 3 of that model incubator, the egg turner motor shaft ceased up on all three when not being used during the winter months 🥴
Good job
How long can you leave the eggs out before you have to incubate them?
Thank you. I did not understand this machine
I use the same incubators.. Have you ever had any problems not taking the turner out when they start hatching?

Mine will hatch in two weeks
Some like eggs having their space…could put the non slip fabric on the turner.
I have had three splayed leg chicks out of 57.
Do you have to have the turner?
Thank you. I'm on day 23, how much longer shall I leave them in there?
Until day 25. There are some tests you can do after to see if they are still alive (water test)
Thanks. I learned a lot.

When do you take out the egg turner or can you leave the egg turner in
Can we use this incubator on low voltage like in battery

Wonderful video and very informative!!
Check out MyShire Farm on TH-cam. They did a video on this incubator and his room was about 65.
When it hatched 🐣 can you just let them inside the incubator?
What do you like your humidity to be??
I like 15/25 % first 19 days and 50% last two days and I don’t open once they start to hatch
When does the egg turner start to move. I tested and all is fine but I dont see it turning constantly
I have the same incubator, curious as to how come you leave the turner in? I’m thinking as they hatch the other chicks could not jostle the eggs as much if the Turner is in, do their legs ever get stuck in the turner?

I use vinegar
Why do you leave the turner device in for lock down?
Good job! Thank you
May i ask why you did not take the turner rack out?
Do you ship any of your eggs or chicks
When do you fill the B port with water
Do you rotate your eggs in your incubator as they incubate?
Yep I plugged mine in yesterday and haven't heard it turn yet! Nothing said in the directions
@@jodifelt2066 what kind did you buy? It should have two plugs on it. One for the turner and one for the incubator itself, at least mine does.
Out of 22 eggs I only hatch 6 eggs , do you wash your eggs before ?
Can I do temprature 100 for hen in very cold
What do you do to get red light on
What do you do if the power does go out, when you get severe storms, during the incubation. And you’re in the countdown stage
We have 2 hour and 4 hour loadshedding in South Africa. I used two hotwater bottels and covered my brooder with a dubble fleeze blanket. 21 of 30 made it and hatched. During winter.

I just got to day 00, and I hear cripping? Should I be worried I opened during last 3 days..
This incubator has a light for this
There's also an egg candling light right on the unit if that helps anyone
It's not very good but yes it's there
I'd recommend only using that candler to see if the egg is a dud or not due to not being able to tell if the egg is alive or not if it's gone dark
