Where should I get my eggs from?
You should get your eggs from a local hatchery/poultry farmer. Fertilized eggs purchased from local hatcheries will yield higher hatch rates compared to online, since online eggs are exposed to temperature fluctuations and shocks during transport.
How long can I store my fertilized eggs?
Prior to incubation, fertilized eggs can be stored for up to 7 days (3 days in summers) in a cool room maintained at constant temperature (55-60 °F/13-16 °C), do not place them in the refrigerator!
What type of eggs can I hatch with the OBI-12 Egg incubator?
The OBI-12 comes with adjustable rotating tubes that can be spaced out to set small and large eggs for chickens (12), ducks, pigeons and other birds.
What’s the average hatch rate?
Do not be discouraged if not all of your eggs hatch!
A normal hatch rate is between 55% and 75% but this can vary due to a wide variety of environmental and biological factors.

Customers say
Customers find the incubator to be a good beginner model that’s easy to set up and offers good value for money. The temperature control receives mixed feedback – while some say it keeps a very even temperature, others report it doesn’t stay at a constant set temperature. The functionality and hatching rate also get mixed reviews, with some reporting it works fantastically while others say it stopped working after two months and never hatched any eggs. The humidity control is particularly problematic, with customers noting it’s almost impossible to maintain. The incubator’s sturdiness receives negative feedback, with several customers reporting broken pieces.

Great small incubator!
Update:It works! This is an excellent incubator at this price.It was my first time hatching, and only one egg stopped developing (several were infertile, no fault of the incubator). I changed the temperature setting to 99.5, kept the humidity between 35 and 50, and raised the humidity to 70 for hatching. The turners work well and are easy to remove for hatching.Make sure to leave the incubator in the Styrofoam for insulation.Only truly annoying thing is the loose wire. Didn’t cause problems but is annoying.Original review:This is my first time hatching eggs, and this machine looks up to the task for a beginner.Good points:~Automatic temperature.~Built in hygrometer. Manual humidity, but you can add water without opening.~Easy to program~Alarm.~Automatic turners.~Designed to allow different egg sizes.~Nice styrofoam insulation.~Candler works! (But sometimes takes a moment to respond to button press)Room for Improvement~I can’t imagine it holds a dozen large breed eggs. Holds a dozen small bantam eggs, though. (Pictured are Silkie and Japanese Bantam eggs.)~Loose wire in the incubator is annoying and can disrupt turning. I taped it to the side.~The default settings was over 100 degrees A little warm for an incubator with a fan.~Humidity can be hard to regulate. I am a little concerned with keeping it high enough for the last few days.Overall seems great for the price! I hope I get a good hatch. It’s my first time, so user error is possible.

Ugh! What am I doing wrong?!
UPDATE: We have Rouen Ducks hatching! ð£So maybe I was too hard on this product with my first review. Now that itâs been on a few hours it seems to have started working normal. I knew it would take awhile to warm but this thing was driving me crazy with the beep alarm. The humidity is a little tricky. I had to start with no water and had it way lower than where I wanted it. (Set to 35 and still had 64 h) I have it now set at 50 to actually keep the desired humidity at 55. That is after I dumped the water out. And then added a little tiny bit. The wire is annoyingly dangling. A few little plastic âclipsâ or hooks on the inside would be nice to keep it up out of the way. Im not sure if the rotation actually works. But supposedly it doesnât rotate âall the timeâ . I guess it basically just does a half turn from what I gather. Not sure how to set a timer for that but Iâm going to mark my eggs and find out. Iâll update if any eggs hatch. Or if itâs a total fail. Starting duck eggs tomorrow morning. Wish me luck.

Please read because this incubator is great!
Listen. When reading the reviews, it seems like this is an iffy buy. But let me tell you this is a great buy! I bought this for my kids and I to hatch some quail. It was the EASIEST set up. It comes with insulated foam for colder days. It even has two easy access dots to add water without opening the lid (which is so important) it has AUTO rotation. And even has a candling light. Itâs perfect for a small amount of eggs. Itâs not a HUGE incubator but it fits a good amount. There are five rollers. They work great. I marked my eggs to ensure they were being rotated. The humidity levels and temperature are almost exact and correct. I have two extra hygrometers in there and they all say the same thing. Which is great! It also has a vent hole. Itâs well established and affordable. Easy to see through the side clear window to check on eggs without opening. It keeps humidity perfectly. I add water about once a day.Anyways. Listen, if youâre just experimenting and donât have a ton of money and just want to do a few eggs this is perfect for you. I have seven in mine right now. Buy it!

Never hatched an egg.
It claims to be for chicken and duck eggs. I have used it on duck eggs with no avail. It never hatched an egg. It would bring them about halfway there and they would quit. I was adamant about keeping them from turning beyond the date and yet it never hatched. I would not recommend this product. It also asked to keep humidity at 55% for duck eggs no matter how much you look over it, it’s almost impossible. You would have to check this incubator at least 10 times a day to keep it close to 55 % Yes the eggs we’re fertile. It seems that it could grow them for a couple weeks and then they would die. I would call this a piece of junk. Ease of use. You have to constantly look after it. Value for my money. I would say it’s a rip-off. I think this thermostat works fairly well.

Came damaged.
Huge plastic piece was broke inside which prevents have of the incubator fromUsing the rollers. I bought it so I didnât have to manually rotate but I have to. Other than that, all seems to work. Wonât be returning due to needing the product.

Reliable and User-Friendly
This incubator proved to be a success with a very hatch rate: 9 out of the 12 eggs hatched successfully. The remaining eggs likely weren’t fertilized, which is no fault of the incubator.One of the standout features of the Okköbi OBI-12 is its ease of use. Itâs almost a ‘set and forget’ device, requiring minimal intervention once it’s up and running. The instructions were clear and straightforward, making the setup process a breeze. This was particularly helpful for a novice like myself, allowing me to focus on other tasks without constant worry.Waking up to the sound of chicks peeping was a delightful surprise one morning! The incubator made the hatching process smooth and somewhat magical. It was truly a joy to see new life emerging with little fuss, and all the hatched chicks were healthy and strong, which speaks to the quality of the environment provided by the OBI-12. Happy hatching!

Es mi primera incubadora, he puesto huevos de mis gallinas. Al final he dejado 9 huevos y salieron todos pollos. Estoy muy contenta, he seguido las instrucciones y ha salido todo bien! Lo recomiendo a todos, es muy fácil.

Leider ging der Brüter zurück weil der Motor für die Wendehorde nicht funktionierte, sowas kann passieren ist aber auch ein wenig ärgerlich wegen des Aufwands d Rücksendung.Allerdings hat mich das Gerät überzeugt zumal auch ein ( einmaliges Preis- Leistungs Verhältnis).Weiterhin habe ich die Themperaturanzeige mit einem sehr genauen Thermometer, speziell für Brutgeräte verglichen ( MeÃbereich von 32°- 42° +/- 0,1°) und habe hier eine sehr geringe Abweichung von 0,1° bis 0,3° zum Gerät beobachten können. Diese Differenz ist völlig normal und ist der Heizung geschuldet, die anspringt wenn der eingestellte Wert unterschritten wird. Den Fühler vom zusätzlichen Thermometer konnte ich sehr einfach durch das kleine schon vorhandene Lüftungsloch im Deckel durchstecken und so auch Höhe des vorhandenen Fühlers bringen.Auch die Luftfeutigkeit lässt sich gut regulieren drei seperate Kammern, von denen zwei von aussen zu befüllen sind. Hier sollte man durch probieren die richtige Menge zu befüllen. Die Fläche macht die Verdunstung aus, nicht die Tiefe des Wassers. Tipp : mit einer HeiÃklebepistole kann man die Flächen s.g. verkleinern und mini Dämme errichten, denn vollflächig Wasser einzulassen lässt die Luftfeutigkeit zu hoch ansteigen. . Sehr hilfreich, wie ich durch ausprobieren rausgefunden habe, ist der Boden eines joghurtbechers (vom griechischem joghurt, pefekte GröÃe ). Diesen auf 15 mm kürzen, so passt dieser auch unter das Sieb in die Wasserbehälter und stört oben die Wendehorde nicht.Der runde kleine feste Behälter am Boden des Getätes bringt, allein befüllt 50% RH mit dem Joghurtbecherboden zusammen 70% RH.Insgesamt, hat mich die stabile, gute Verarbeitung überzeugt.Nun nur noch warten, auf das hoffentlich voll funktionierende Gerät.2. Gerät ist angekommen, wie immer sehr schnell.Der Wendemechanismus funktionier sehr gut muss aber in der Zeit der Drehung angepasst werden. Sonst landen die Eier in der ursprünglichen Position, wäre dann nur ein Eierkarussel und keine Wende.Nun steht dem Brüten nichts mehr im Wege.Eindeutige Kaufempfehlung !!

incubatrice piccolina e comodissima da usare anche per i principianti.Arriva a casa in una scatolina che la protegge piuttosto bene.All’interno della confezione ho trovato:-la base dell’incubatrice;-il guscio in polistirolo per mantenere la temperatura;-il coperchio;-la griglia per la base dell’incubatrice;-6 rulli su cui posizionare le uova;-l’alimentatore di corrente;-un morsetto per la batteria;-una bottiglietta in plastica con beccuccio sottile;-una bottiglietta in plastica con dosatore spray;-il manuale d’uso scritto anche in italiano.La qualità costruttiva dell’incubatrice mi ha molto soddisfatto, è robusta e non presenta difetti di alcun tipo.Le dimensioni sono anche abbastanza contenute ma nonostante questo l’interno è capiente e mi permette di incubare fino a 12 uova di gallina e ben 24 uova di quaglia e anche di più.Nel dettaglio l’incubatrice, compreso di guscio in polistirolo, misura:-26 cm di larghezza;-24,5 cm di lunghezza;-19,5 cm di altezza.L’uso dell’incubatrice è semplicissimo e mi viene in soccorso l’ottimo manuale che spiega passo passo come iniziare la covata e come proseguirla in tutta sicurezza per il maggior successo possibile.Grazie anche al manuale fatto così bene, l’incubatrice è perfetta anche per i principianti perchè, seguendo poche accortezze, si possono far schiudere le uova con un ottimo margine di successo, ovvio che molto dipende anche dalle uova se sono fecondate o meno.La prima cosa da fare è posizionare l’incubatrice in un posto tranquillo ed al riparo dalla luce diretta del sole e da correnti d’aria.Poi bisogna ricordarsi di accenderla almeno 6 ore prima di cominciare la covata così da regolare i parametri alla perfezione e evitare stress inutili alle uova che potrebbero danneggiarle.Sul coperchio dell’incubatrice ho un piccolo display e diversi tasti con cui posso aggiustare temperatura e umidità .L’incubatrice arriva già impostata per la cova di uova da gallina e quindi ha la temperatura a 38,5°C e l’umidità al 60%.Se poi vogliamo cambiare tipo di uova basta premere i pulsanti più e meno per modificare i parametri.Sempre sul coperchio trovo una lampada spera-uova per controllare i progressi dell’uovo.L’incubatrice ha anche un sistema di allarme che avvisa se i parametri di temperatura e umidità variano troppo da quelli impostati.All’interno l’incubatrice ha anche il girauova automatico che ogni 45 minuti fa ruotare le uova da sole.Io sinceramente non lo vedevo mai in funzione così ho fatto una x sulle uova ed ho potuto verificare che effettivamente le uova girano sole.Infine, nella parte bassa dell’incubatrice trovo 2 piccoli fori che servono per aggiungere l’acqua e regolare l’umidità quando cala il valore.Attenzione ad aggiungere l’acqua, ne bastano davvero poche gocce per far salire il livello di umidità , bisogna solo aspettare qualche minuto quindi non bisogna eccedere.Gli ultimi giorni della covata, ossia 3 giorni prima della schiusa prevista, si devono togliere i rulli che girano le uova e posizionare le uova direttamente sulla griglia e ricordarsi di bagnarne i gusci ogni tanto con lo spruzzino in dotazione così da renderli più morbidi e aiutare i pulcini a nascere.Io la sto provando con le uova di quaglia e già dopo 7 giorni si vede l’embrione per cui sono più che soddisfatta, è un ottimo prodotto, facilissimo da gestire, silenzioso e funziona a dovere per cui la consiglio senza alcun dubbio.
