Poultry incubators come in various designs, including manual, semi-automatic, and fully automatic systems. Manual incubators require users to adjust temperature and turn eggs by hand, suitable for small-scale operations. Semi-automatic units automate some features but may need periodic monitoring. Fully automatic incubators handle temperature, humidity, and egg turning, ideal for commercial hatcheries. Understanding the type of poultry incubator you need can significantly enhance your hatching results and streamline farm operations.
