Making a chicken hatchery using a 5 watt bulb

in #homesteading7 years ago

Hello steemans, how are you guys today, I hope it's fine. on this day I will share a science that maybe you can follow that may be useful for all of you, this time I make an electric chicken hatchery that is incubating chicken eggs using 5 watt light bulb only. Indeed, the female can lay eggs for 21 days so that the eggs can hatch. Unfortunately, this natural method is often constrained by several factors including the female condition, weather and the state of the cage. As a result there are one or two damaged eggs can not even hatch all if the female stress.

Hatching process

In the process of hatching chicken eggs with incubator usually takes between 21-22 days with the following stages: First day: In the morning, insert the ready eggs on the machine with an angle of about 40 °, the taper part below and the blunt part above and close the door meetings until the 2nd day. Day 3: Play egg 3x a day, morning and afternoon (Do not remove egg from machine). Day 4: Open the ventilation ¼ section for 15 minutes to cool the egg after it returns the egg. Day 5: Open the ½ part vents and start flipping the egg. Day 6: Open the ventilation ¾ part and behind the egg. Day 7: Turn the eggs and open the whole vents and start sorting the empty eggs. Day 8 s.d 13: Turn the eggs and chill them. Day 14: Behind the egg and sort the dead seeds again (Dead seeds will look fluid or blood while the living will look a branching point). Day 15 s.d 17: Turn the eggs and chill them. Day 18: Turn the egg and make sure the machine is still closed. Day 19: When the egg begins to crack start adding air humidity to the hatching machine by hanging a wet cloth around the egg (Do not drop the heat delivery pipe). Day 20: When the eggs have begun to hatch the lid of a reconnaissance glass with paper or black cloth. Day 21: Remove the tubs and cloth from the machine because the eggs have hatched. Day 22: Start moving the chicks that have hatched to the artificial parent.

Here I make a chicken hatchery tool using your plywood and of course a 5 watt lamp.

The 5 watt lamp includes lamp stands, cables and plugs.

Then dried husk, therefore drying your chaff dry during the hot sun. Placed under the wood where the eggs are placed.

Electric hinge that stands firmly and equally balanced.

The circumstances in the chicken egg hatchery electrically. With 5 watt lamps installed as many as 4 pieces, and under it suah give a dry husk that has been smooth or a lot of people also make it with rice bran.

beforehand I made sure that the tools used were still healthy and safe from the disturbance of other animals and undesirable events. Here I make sure the condition of the cage enclosure that no hole and tightly closed and not rocking.

The state of electricity is neat and does not bother other people and keep from things that are not desirable.

Chicken egg eggs that will be hatched using a 5 watt bulb

Before the chicken eggs are sorted and make sure that the eggs are good and worth the hatched. Here I see it with the help of lights When highlighted with a flashlight or lights, eggs are bright and clear color, it means the eggs are still fresh. Conversely, if the color is opaque, then the sign of the egg is not fresh anymore

Then if everything is supposed to be safe and well it's fine we can do electrically from now. Stacking the eggs neatly with a less dense arrangement and the aam hatchery that I made this only loads 50 chicken eggs with a frequency of 4 watts 5 watt and the husk underneath and safe from animal and human disturbances

And the enclosure is locked with a padlock and we certainly have the key.

other than that Reversal of eggs to level the temperature is done 3 to 5 times a day. Suppose that 3x sehar, first reversal at 4 am, the second reversal around 12 noon and last at 6 pm. Ribet? indeed his name is also how to incubate eggs with traditional, cheap way. The time lag can be thought of as long as it does not disturb your sleep schedule.

Hatch enclosure when light is turned off.

When the date has entered the hatching date we can see one by one chicks have been separated from the eggshell. Looks chicken feathers are still wet will quickly dry with the help of the 5 watt lamp

chicken condition that is hatched with electric hatchery. The same as the aam form is usually but the risk of hatching is very little, during last month's experiment, hatcher cage able to accommodate 45 eggs and successfully hatched 44 eggs, 1 egg failed because I forgot to reverse eggs 5 days ago. I forgot to turn this egg because I think it's already and I just failed to hatch only 1 chicken.

After the chicks hatch and are removed from the machine, should not feed or drink first. In general, chicks can survive for 2 days without being fed and drunk because there are still food reserves in the body. If you really want to move the chicks, make sure the place is really clean and healthy. It's up to you whether you want to be separated from the sires or not. But to prevent broodstock so as not to stress, you should mix it with indukannya not diforsir no time lag to "rest" recovery of energy. Thank you good luck and hopefully useful @akunku

Very interesting and thank you for sharing knowledge @akunku

I hope this adds to our knowledge, thank you friends

very interisting thanks for sharing @akunku
