Apdoe 18-Egg Incubator for Chicken Duck Quail – Automatic Turning, Temp & Humidity Control

The APDOE 18-egg incubator is a compact, fully featured hatching machine that manages temperature, humidity, automatic egg turning, and includes a built-in candler for reliable home or small-farm incubation.

Whether you're hatching chickens, ducks, quail, or other small birds, this APDOE incubator combines flexible tray options, automated water refilling, and clear monitoring to simplify the process. The unit supports both small and large eggs with two removable trays, offers adjustable incubation settings for different species, and provides audible and optional silent alerts to help you maintain ideal hatch conditions without constant intervention.

How does APDOE keep temperature and humidity steady during incubation?

The incubator uses a controlled heater and multi-level water channels to maintain stable temperature and humidity. An external refillable water bottle automates moisture supply so you don’t need daily top-ups, and an adjustable air vent gives fine control over humidity levels.

• Automatic water refill system reduces manual refills to 2–3 times per incubation.
• Adjustable air vent and layered water channels for precise humidity tuning.
• Temperature and humidity alerts alert you to deviations; alarms can be muted if desired.

What egg sizes and species will this incubator handle?

APDOE includes two distinct trays so you can switch between small and large eggs without compromises. The standard tray holds up to 18 chicken eggs or many more quail eggs; the large tray fits bigger eggs like duck or goose for greater flexibility.

• Standard 18-slot tray for chicken or up to about 50 quail eggs (depending on size).
• Large 8-slot tray designed for duck, goose, or turkey eggs.
• Tray system is fully removable for easy swapping and cleaning.

How does the automatic egg turning and lockdown feature work?

The incubator gently rotates eggs horizontally at customizable intervals (1h/2h/3h) to mimic natural turning and improve hatch uniformity. It automatically stops turning during the Lockdown period (final 3 days) so chicks can position for hatching.

• Selectable turning intervals with a visible countdown to the next rotation.
• Automatic Lockdown stops turning in the last three days to prepare eggs for hatch.
• Can set incubation day manually to accommodate eggs added mid-cycle.

How can I monitor development without disturbing eggs?

APDOE features a 360° transparent lid and built-in egg candler so you can observe embryo growth without opening the incubator. This reduces temperature and humidity fluctuation and helps you identify infertile or non-developing eggs early.

• Clear lid offers full visibility from all angles during incubation.
• Integrated candler lets you inspect embryos without exposure to outside air.
• Digital display shows temperature, humidity, and incubation day for quick checks.

Who is this for? The APDOE 18-egg incubator is designed for hobbyists, small-scale breeders, classrooms, and micro-farms who want a dependable, low-maintenance hatch solution. It suits users who value automated features—like adjustable turning, automated water refill, and muteable alarms—while needing flexible tray configurations to handle multiple bird species. Backed by a 3-year warranty and lifetime expert support, it’s practical for beginners who want guided reliability and for experienced hatchers who need fine control.
