Incubation is the process by which certain oviparous (egg-laying) animals hatch their eggs; it also refers to the development of the embryo within the egg. Multiple and various factors are vital to the incubation of various species of animal. In many species of reptile for example, no fixed temperature is necessary, but the actual temperature determines the sex ratio of the offspring. In birds in contrast, the sex of offspring is genetically determined, but in many species a constant and particular temperature is necessary for successful incubation. Especially in poultry, the act of sitting on eggs to incubate them is called brooding.[1] The action or behavioral tendency to sit on a clutch of eggs is also called broodiness, and most egg-laying breeds of poultry have had this behavior selectively bred out of them to increase production
The document discusses incubation requirements for hatching chicken eggs, including temperature, humidity, egg turning, and air flow. It describes natural incubation using broody hens and the signs of broodiness in hens. Broody hens need a dark, dry nesting area and good food/water while incubating eggs. The document also discusses artificial incubation using still air incubators, which are inexpensive but can have temperature and humidity regulation issues, and forced air incubators, which are more expensive but provide better hatchability and an automatic egg turning system.
This document discusses hatchery design and technology standards. It notes that modern hatcheries are expected to meet higher standards around preventing disease spread, improving efficiency, meeting animal welfare requirements, and optimizing incubation conditions for performance. Key factors in hatchery design include layout, airflow, sanitation procedures, incubation equipment tailored to current high-yield genetics, automation, and addressing food safety, welfare and labor concerns. The optimal design considers the unique needs of the embryo at each stage of incubation to maximize chick quality and yield.
The document discusses different housing and equipment systems for rearing chickens, including extensive free range, organic certified semi-intensive, intensive cage systems using individual, group or colony cages, and deep litter and slat flooring systems. It also describes controlled environment houses and their advantages like improved feed conversion, better quality meat, increased productivity and health of chickens with reduced mortality. Various equipment for brooding, feeding, watering, vaccination, counting eggs and chicks, transportation and processing are also listed.
The document discusses the use of cages for housing birds commercially. It notes that cages are commonly made of welded wire, sheet metal, or plastic and are used to confine and display birds. The use of cages for egg production has become increasingly popular, with 75% of egg-laying flocks in cages. There are different types of cages including single bird, small multiple bird, and large multiple bird cages. While cages make it easier to care for and observe birds, reducing mortality and feed consumption, they also present disadvantages such as higher costs per bird and difficulties handling manure.
Poultry housing is needed because modern chickens have fast growth rates and high egg production, making it difficult for them to regulate their body temperature in extreme environments. The body temperature of adult chickens is between 105-107°F, while newly hatched chicks have a temperature of about 103°F. Panting is one mechanism chickens use to maintain their body temperature when heat cannot be dissipated through other means. Proper ventilation and environmental controls are necessary in poultry housing to keep chickens comfortable and productive.
Hatchability is influenced by many factors including fertility, embryo metabolism, incubation temperature and humidity, oxygen requirements, egg handling and nutrition. Maintaining optimal temperatures of 99.5°F from days 1-19 and 89-99°F on days 20-21 is important as is humidity between 50-60%. Proper egg selection, storage, turning and nutrition can also impact hatchability. Genetics, diseases and other environmental stresses like high altitude can affect fertility and embryonic development.

Esco Medical Miri Multi Room Embryo Incubator for IVFEsco Group
The Miri® has six (6) chambers which are completely independent of each other. This is ideal because any disruption (e.g. temperature drop after opening the lid) has zero impact on the rest of the system. Furthermore, calibration is so much simpler because there is no crossover of heat from adjacent chambers.
Temperature regulation is thus completely independent per chamber. The Miri® features a total of twelve (12) temperature controlled points. That is two (2) points or every chamber: one on the bottom and another on the heated lid. The heated lid is another great feature of the Miri® as it prevents condensation and enhances temperature uniformity across cultured dishes.

2. The modern hatchery manager’s goal is to produce large
numbers of uniform, robust day old chicks. Robustness is a
health criterion, originating in the embryonic life stage of the
chicken – and correlating directly with the performance and
resistance of individual chicks under differing farm conditions.
Detailed research has shown that robustness can be achieved by
stimulating the embryo with a specific trigger, i.e. stimulation by
heat or cold,during critical periods of the incubation process.This
causes so-called ‘embryonic imprinting’ on a physiological level,
to produce a chicken that will thrive in its farm environment.
After three years of intensive research and development,
Pas Reform is introducing SmartPro™ - its latest and most
advanced development for modular, single-stage incubation
to date: a solution that enables Circadian Incubation™
3. Such daily short-term thermo-conditioning is at the heart of
Circadian Incubation™ – and known to improve hatchability, for
long-lasting effects that include 1-2% increase in final body
weight and 1-2 points better feed conversion rates. Batches of
uniform, robust day old chicks also deliver uniformity at
slaughter age, thereby improving processing yields, efficiency
and performance throughout the entire production chain.
To support the use of Circadian Incubation™, the incubator must
deliver precise climate control.To achieve truly homogeneous
temperature distribution, the challenge is to exchange energy,
CO2/O2 and moisture – without affecting temperature uniformity
around the eggs.
To meet this exacting requirement, Pas Reform’s SmartPro™
uniquely combines three critical features: modular design,
a new Vortex™-based airflow principle and Adaptive Metabolic
Feedback™.
1
4. 2
Modular
incubator design
Modular design creates sectional environments in the incubator
that can be controlled individually.This is the only way to
guarantee homogeneous temperature in incubators containing
more than 100,000 hatching eggs. Each modular section of the
incubator is supported by its own temperature, heating, cooling,
humidification and ventilation systems.
5. 3
Modular design: precise control
–– Modular setter and hatcher design enables the precise control
of temperature, humidity, O2 and CO2 in large incubators.
–– Separate heating, cooling, humidification and ventilation
systems in each module of 19,200 eggs provide a homoge-
neous environment.
–– Modular, precise ambient control for larger hatchers
comprising up to six modules.
–– Integrated heating cooling system (setter) and
SurroundCooling™ (hatcher) in each section of the incubator,
for optimum energy transmission, fast, even warm-up to set
temperature and maximum, future-proof cooling capacity.
–– Modular design of both setter and hatcher uniquely enables
the incubation of eggs from different flocks and different ages
in the same machine, without losing performance and results.
6. 4
Vortex™-based
airflow
Intensive analysis using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has
demonstrated that the most effective method of exchanging energy,
CO2/O2 and moisture in the incubator, is to generate as many vortices
as possible – of a specific dimension and intensity – in the wake of the
air pump blade.This research, combined with practical field studies,
has driven the design and construction of Pas Reform’s brand new
Vortex™.
7. 5
Vortex™ for complete temperature homogeneity
–– Tested and proven as the most effective method of
exchanging energy, CO2/O2 and moisture in the incubator.
–– Generates multiple, controlled vortices in the wake of the air
pump blade, exchanging energy, CO2/O2 and moisture without
affecting the incubator’s homogeneous temperature.
–– Inlet air is channeled along the side of the setter trolleys,
to prevent ambient air making direct contact with the eggs.
–– Mixing zone assures complete air temperature homogeneity
before air is drawn over the eggs.
–– Mixed air vortices flow in parallel with the turning direction of
setter trolleys, ensuring that air direction along the eggs
changes constantly, for unique, homogeneous egg shell
temperature.
9. 7
Adaptive Metabolic Feedback™ (AMF™) has been developed to ensure
that the incubation environment meets the metabolic needs of each
growing embryo during its development.With a focus on managing
moisture and CO2, AMF™ continually‘reads’ the time-varying
metabolism of a specific batch of embryos, to adapt control
parameters and fine-tune the incubator environment according to the
embryo’s needs. Ultimately AMF™ maximizes uniformity by optimising
airflow, the evaporation of moisture and air redistribution.
AMF™: creating an adaptive environment
–– AMF™ software delivers precise, adaptive control over
humidity and CO2 during the incubation process – according to
the time-varying metabolism of a specific batch of embryos.
–– Unparalleled functionality incorporated into one central
operator console. Fully integrated sensor box includes high
precision electronic humidity and CO2 control.
–– Custom controlled relative humidity set points for variable
egg weight loss at each stage of embryonic development.
–– Prevents excessive inlet of (dry and cold) fresh air for
maximum temperature homogeneity.
–– Additional, integrated modules include SmartWatch™ –
automatically registers and minimizes the hatch window;
ESM™ Energy Saving Module – for fully programmable
Vortex™ RPM; SmartTransfer™ module – for programmable
turning intervals during transfer; PID control – with set points
per section and fully adjustable turning programmes.
10. 8
Ergonomically
advanced
Ease of use is of paramount importance in the daily, working practice
of the hatchery. From loading and unloading incubators, to closed-door
operation and keeping both routine and service maintenance tasks to
the minimum, SmartPro’s™ advanced ergonomic design benefits from
decades of practical hatchery experience. Every detail has been
thoughtfully engineered, to deliver safe, efficient operation, while at
the same time minimising maintenance, reducing the risk of mistakes
and decreasing labour costs.
11. 9
Thoughtful engineering. Maximum user friendliness
–– SmartTouch™ multi-language user interface design, makes
operation simple and easily accessible to operators of all skill
levels – from experienced hatchery managers with specific
control needs, to fully automated hatcheries.
–– Large, high-contrast, high resolution 10.4 inch colour LCD
screen with Projective Capacitive Touch Screen technology
(PCT) and ergonomic user interface viewing angle.
–– Highly manoeuvrable trolley, with two swivel wheels and
ergonomically designed handle bar for easy loading /
unloading of incubator.
–– Large inspection window provides full view of entire machine
interior for thorough physical inspection, plus comprehensive
user interface and record keeping – all from outside the
incubator.
–– Maximum use of maintenance free components, including
high temperature bearings, long-life lubricants, low friction
motors and toothed V-belt.
12. 10
Hygiene
assured
SmartPro™ was specifically designed to meet the stringent hygienic
requirements of the modern hatchery.With compartmentalized
sensors, modular hatchers to prevent cross contamination, the
incorporation of Microban® antibacterial protection into setter trays
and hatcher baskets and integrated cooling pipes in anodized
aluminium hatcher walls, the time required to clean the incubator
thoroughly is the shortest in the industry.
13. 11
Smart, clean and protected
–– Modular hatcher control prevents cross contamination from
older to younger batches, because eggs of different ages need
not be mixed.
–– Setter trays and hatcher baskets incorporate Microban® techno-
logy for the most effective, continuous antibacterial protection.
Patented antimicrobial agent penetrates the cell wall of
unwelcome micro-organisms on contact, disrupting normal cell
function to prevent the multiplication and spread of bacteria.
–– SurroundCooling™ – integrated cooling pipes inside smooth-
walled‘food safe’anodized aluminium hatcher wall panels
significantly improve the effectiveness of cleaning,minimize the
risk of cross contamination and greatly reduce cleaning time.
–– Securely placed and compartmentalized sensors in central
operating console allow for high pressure cleaning without
risking damage to sensors.
–– All surfaces, fixings and finishes are designed to resist the
ingress of moisture and bacteria, preventing the creation of
dirt traps.
15. 13
With a focus on delivering environmentally friendly incubation, the
CFD-designed and highly effective Vortex™, together with high efficiency
motors, dramatically reduces electrical consumption. Adaptive Metabolic
Feedback™ (AMF™) technology actively controls ventilation, to use only the
specific amount of fresh air necessary.Together with the Energy Saving
Module (ESM™) for metabolism-based RPM control, the use of fossil fuels and
electricity are reduced to the lowest possible levels, which translate into
significantly reduced operation costs.
Eco-friendly, cost-efficient incubation
–– ESM™ Energy Saving module makes the RPM of the Vortex™
air pump fully programmable – derived from embryonic
metabolism rates – to reduce energy consumption by more
than 60% in specific phases of embryonic development.
–– AMF™ guards against unnecessary or excessive ventilation.
–– Vortex™ air pump blades and high-efficiency motors prevent
energy loss by optimising energy exchange in the incubator.
–– Smart PID control delivers greatest accuracy to date in
predicting heating and cooling for each incubator section,
to avoid expensive overshoots.
–– Fully sealed cabinet, including airtight 3-lock door system
and seamless‘Hotmelt’ panels with maximum insulation
value, designed to prevent energy leakage.
