Creating the right environment
This incubator sets the scene perfectly for chicks to make their debut. Here are a few tips to get the best results:

Top tips for a good hatch cycle
- Feed your birds well.
- Keep a good balance of male and female birds.
- Avoid young or very old birds.
- Don’t let blood relatives crossbreed.
- Keep nests clean and use plenty of bedding.
- Make sure the breeding area is at least 16°C and humidity is between 55-75%.
- Don’t leave eggs in the sun or an overly warm place.
- Check the nests four times a day and remove any fresh eggs.
- Collect all eggs before nightfall, don’t let them stay in the nests overnight.
- Sort eggs by size, shape, and weight. Medium-sized eggs work best for hatching.
- Place the eggs in a rack with the pointy end down and keep them in a room at 15-18°C with humidity at 55-75% for 24 hours before incubation.
- Use eggs no older than 5 days to avoid hatching issues.

Getting started
- Read the instructions.
- Check for any damage.
- Use the incubator only for hatching eggs (Novital isn’t responsible for misuse).
- Ensure all parts are in place, and for the Maxi model, make sure the rod for egg turning is mounted.
- Plug in the incubator, let it stabilise for an hour.
- Adjust the temperature using the top screw if needed.
- Always unplug before opening the incubator.
- Fill it up with lukewarm water to the brim.
- Once stable, place the eggs inside.
- Confirm the turning device is working.
- Re-check the temperature after an hour.

During incubation
- Turn eggs twice daily.
- Check the water level every other day and top up as needed, but do a final top-up three days before hatching starts, and don’t open the lid again.
- Monitor the temperature twice daily.
- Divide the eggs if the incubator isn’t full.
- Use a fertility check on the 6th or 7th day.
- For duck or goose eggs, open the incubator daily after the 9th day for about 15-20 minutes; spray the eggs with lukewarm water.
- Remove the partition walls three days before hatching to give chicks space.
- Let chicks dry in the incubator for 24 hours before moving them to a room with a heat lamp, water, and chick feed.
- Clean the incubator with a sponge, lukewarm water, and a cleaning agent once done.
