Conclusion
​
I had a fantastic hatch with the incubator all though mid hatch 2 eggs were shrink wrapped in the shell which was a little disappointing. But the rest of the eggs all continued to hatch perfectly.
The chicks all hatched extremely strong. The incubator come with a corrugated cardboard hatch Matt which is a nice feature but I did find that a few chicks had spraddle leg.
The incubator has external water fill which is a really nice feature meaning you don’t need to open the incubator and lose humidity.
Overall I would highly recommend this incubator, its extremely easy to use and the hatch rate was excellent.
The incubator is extremely good value for money all though one feature I would of liked would have been an internal hygrometer.
