Homeliness, Do it yourself
How to make a self-made incubator
Do you know that a self-made incubator is just as good as a purchased one? So why waste money then. Let's look at how to make the incubator yourself.
Homemade incubator can be made from a simple cardboard box (for example, from under the TV). To give it a lot of rigidity, build a frame of racks and mount it porcelain cartridges (4 pieces). Why porcelain, so that they do not accidentally catch fire. Screw in them 25-watt electric bulbs each. Three will warm up the eggs themselves, and the fourth will be needed for the operation of the humidifier bath, which is suitable for dishes with water (it is better to use a small tray). Make sure that the distance between the lamps and the eggs is not less than 17 centimeters (under the grille - 15 centimeters). You will also need a thermometer, with which you will monitor the temperature inside the incubator.
In the floor (along long walls), it is necessary to make three identical holes with a diameter of 1.5 centimeters. Do not close them - this will be additional ventilation. And to increase the humidity in the bathtub, put a damp cloth (wash it every two days). In the lumens, which are between the slats, eggs are laid. For a convenient turn of eggs, release one cell. No cooling devices are provided, since during the povert the eggs themselves are cooled.
As you saw, the self-made incubator has a right to exist, and if you are planning to breed the birds, try starting with it.
