OBI-12 Egg Incubator for Hatching Chickens, Ducks & Other Birds - Temperature Control - Humidity Display - Integrated Candler - Automatic Egg Turner - 5 Year Assurance

The joys of a partner with ADHD, a homeschooled child and amazon doing same day delivery on incubators! What should have been breakfast after a night shift and drive by a local farm on way home turned into an education project. Three weeks later, two sleepless nights and a little bit of stress later and we have 4 baby ducks (from a box of 12 eggs). The incubator was really easy to use and, despite being cheap, was of good quality. It was compact enough that we could put it on a bedside table for oversight in the last few days. Function wise, it has readers for temp and humidity, these drop and alarm quickly when opening to candle and we aren't 100% sure this didn't impact hatch rate as we started pippibg at 19days. We weren't however aware when the eggs were laid and if they had been blooded already, breed or age of the duck hens laying etc. 12 eggs started in there, 9 appeared fertilised at day 6, 6 went through to week 2 but one stopped movibg and veins regracted, 5 made it to he final days and one didn't make it through hatching. We had to help a couple due to malpositioning but the ones that are through are generally healthy and strong. Humidity and temperature may have contributed to this so it may be worth having another hydrometer and thermometer in there to cross check. Overall, well worthwhile.

This is absolutely perfect and easy to use it literally does everything for you from start to finish from putting the eggs in to hatching all you have to do iskeep the water topped up to maintain humidity 5 star plus well done guys

Awful, definitely doesn’t hold 12 chicken eggs, the automatic rotating does rotate all eggs, humidity level is almost impossible to keep at 50%, can’t take the polystyrene off without damaging it as it’s glued on ordered a different one and this one is going back

I give it in the middle. Where it is easy to set up and does infact set at the right temp and so far so good temp is staying. Humidity on the other hand 😏 Very sensitive every 2 hours or so tiny squeeze if you squeeze too hard goes straight upto 70! Also the added joy of automatic rollers was what I was waiting for............DONT WORK! So annoyed considering it's not the cheapest one out there! Also styrofoam is glued on so I can't remove it without breaking it! Wouldn't buy again. A little worried regarding the massive wires hanging too when they hatch! already clipped some of it up.

We bought this incubator for our first attempt at hatching eggs. We bought 10 fertile eggs offline and hatched 2 successfully. Had more have hatched I would give this 5 stars. My son who is 11 found it easy to use, and kept it in his bedroom the entire time- nice and quiet. The temperature remained stable, however humidity would drop quickly and require topping up in the night (an alarm will sound to alert you which is helpful). There is a printable hatching tracker on their website which we used to count down the days. I would say this is good value for money as an entry level incubator, we have 2 healthy chickens now and my son loved the experience.

Good small hatched baby chicks for me

So far so good we are currently on day 8 with no problems so definitely would buy again and definitely recommend for anyone wanting to start hatching eggs 🐣🐣🐣

Great little incubator. Temperature was maintained and resulted in hatching of 5 baby tortoise. I did not use the rollers and was easy to maintain water level though bottle did leak a little so I would stand incubator on kitchen towel for this purpose. I am Very pleased with product.
