We recommend incubating the eggs in a closed container with only a few
ventilation holes and using a suitable substrate. This makes it easier
to guarantee the right humidity for the eggs and the substrate acts as
temperature buffer reducing temperature fluctuations.
As substrate we recommend Lucky Reptile HatchRite which is being used
by a lot of successful breeders. This breeding substrate already has the
right humidity and conserves water, so that it is not necessary to add
water during the breeding process if used correctly.
Place breeding substrate into the breeding tub and place the eggs into
the substrate. Two thirds of the egg should be covered by substrate.
Make sure that you do not turn the eggs as this can cause them to die off.
You should put the tubs into the Egg-o-Bator with a slight slope so that
condensed water will run down the sides and cannot drip on the eggs.
Open the incubator and the tubs two times a week to provide fresh air
and control the eggs. Remove mouldy and dead eggs immediately!
Cleaning:
Pull the plug before cleaning. Use a wet cloth to clean the device from
the outside and inside and rub it dry after cleaning. Do never rinse or
spray water on the device.
It is recommended to disinfect the device after use. Only use disinfec-
tants that are not based on alcohol, acids or other aggressive materials
that can damage the device.
Important Issue:
• Before placing eggs into the device make a test run for a couple of days
to ensure the temperature is correct.
• Do not make any changes to the device and do not open the case!
• The device and cables have to be regularly checked for damages. In
case of discovering a problem, put the device immediately out of ope-
ration.
• Generally it should be verified if the device is applicable for the appli
-
cation at hand before putting it into operation!
• To prevent the loss of eggs or animals regular temperature checks are
required. No claims for loss of eggs are accepted in case of malfunc-
tion of the device or wrong temperature.
• As typical for this price class, the device does not have a double ther
-
mostat protection. We recommend to use another thermostat like the
Lucky Reptile Thermo Control II to add another safety mechanism.
