    #Giveaway Magicfly Candler light - nice incubator, so far the GQF Genesis works for me. I worked up a production model that calculate when to set a new batch of eggs. Gotta love those GQF folks! That way I don't loose track of things when life starts to speed up!

    Great video! Finally got the information I needed! Set humidity at 55 degrees when having some trays incubating while others are on lockdown! Thanks! So for three days of lockdown and two days of hatching you recommend at least a whole week apart from batches?

    • @homesteadevolution
      @homesteadevolution  4 роки тому

      Not necessarily you just need to space your sets so you want be opening the incubator during the lockdown and hatching period

    I’m rather new to incubation. I have a sportsman 1502 and have peacock and pheasant eggs in it right now. I did not place the pheasant eggs pointy end down. They are in the upright position. This batch is going on day 4... will they still hatch? Is it too late for me to turn them to pointed end down? Thank you for this video! The instructions that came with the machine were fairly vague!

    • @homesteadevolution
      @homesteadevolution  6 років тому

      At this point I would say that you should leave them alone and hope for the best.

      We use the pheasant trays as our eggs are to large for the quail trays

    do you clean eggs before putting in if so how do you do it im looking to do chicken eggs

    • @homesteadevolution
      @homesteadevolution  6 років тому

      you will want to put clean eggs in the incubator however do not wash them. Washing removes the protective coating on the egg and will let bacteria in. If an egg is grossly soiled take a barely damp cloth and get as much off as possible.

    This is the first time using my GQF incubator and I have eggs scheduled to hatch this coming Monday. Do you leave your incubator in manual mode during the lock down process?

    • @homesteadevolution
      @homesteadevolution  6 років тому +1

      if you are referring to the turner operation we leave it on auto if there are more eggs incubating. We use the auto humidifier bucket at all times. Temp in a constant setting.

    • @sirocco454
      @sirocco454 6 років тому

      Homestead Evolution thanks for your response. All the eggs were set at the same time so I put the incubator in manual mode when I went in to lockdown yesterday morning. I added one wick and the humidity went up from 50 percent to 72. They were scheduled to hatch tomorrow but there already hatching this morning...this incubator is awesome. Thanks for all the info.

    How do you change the timer for turn rate to 2hrs

    • @homesteadevolution
      @homesteadevolution  6 років тому

      We have never had the need to change the turner time so I'm sorry I can not answer that question.

    I’m having a problem with my water bucket not flowing water into the pan inside the incubator, does the float need some kind of adjustment?

    • @homesteadevolution
      @homesteadevolution  3 роки тому +1

      Do you have hard water. Sometimes we have to take it out and flush the hose. Also may have to take float apart and soak them in vinegar to remove any build up. We usually do that 2 times per year

    • @ElPatronGamefarm
      @ElPatronGamefarm 3 роки тому

      @@homesteadevolution not sure what you mean by hard water? And the system is brand new so I’m not sure what I am doing wrong, not sure if the float needs some kind of adjustment?
