  Looking into a Maticoopx. I unscrew my NR360 to clean it. Does the Maticoop have the option of unscrewing the base and taking out the motor, to avoid the potential for water getting in it?

• 
  @growinggreenways5623Ай бұрын

  No. You would have to take the motor off (just a few screws, but plastic may not do well with long term removal, reinstallation. Personally, I just sit mine on the side when washing with the motor on the side facing downward. That keeps the water from getting into the motor. I let it dry out for a few days before plugging back in if I am concerned about any moisture getting in the motor.

  The egg trays are great without dividers. I just loaded them with duck eggs and only five fit in each one. If there were dividers set up for chicken eggs there would be six slots and worthless to me. I load them point down and lean them all toward one end. When candling I start with the last one in a tray, replacing it in the same spot but leaning against the other end, leaning the others against it as I go. Temp is dead stable, checked against another calibrated thermometer, but half a degree high. The only other thing is I cover the whole thing with a towel, except the humidity vent, since the clear plastic is not a great insulator. The heater doesn't work as hard and it is cheap protection against a short term power loss. Update: Three hours after writing this, near tornado winds knocked out power to the area. I have a backup generator that took about an hour to get running (I have to go out to start it manually and weather was nasty) and the incubator temp dropped about three degrees. Once power was connected it recovered in five minutes.

• 
  @growinggreenways5623Ай бұрын

  Yeah, its a great incubator. As far as the dividers are concerned, there could simply be plastic inserts that could be placed where needed depending on eggs size. (Like a lot of tackle boxes have. Here's an example: amzn.to/4aAxP1V) But it doesn't, so I do the same thing you are doing and just lean the eggs.

  I like mine but humidity to high. No way to raise it should have a separate control for that

• 
  @growinggreenways5623Ай бұрын

  The humidity is adjusted by using the little half circle window the front and the water trays in the bottom. I keep my window open about half way most of the time and you only put water in try one for the first 18 days. After that use tray two to raise humidity. If I need more humidity, I close the window more, and if I want lower humidity, I open it more. If you are doing this and still have high humidity, you may be in a humid environment that doesn't require adding water, or it could just be that your humidity sensor is off. Also, if you add hot water, it creates more humidity when you put it in and sometimes even condensation on the lid, which can get on your humidity sensor. I always recommend room temp water. Just a couple of guesses, since I don't know your situation. Hope something in there is helpful.

Those greenhouses are fine if you don't have any options or you need a cheap way to get started, but it's not going to last more than a few years, tops, and isn't going to be energy efficient. You also have no way to regulate temperature for your plants, so you will be constantly babying it. Unless you're just trying out growing, you need a permanent structure like this to make worthwhile and good luck getting the materials to build it for $150. Besides that, most of the stuff in there was mine (watch the full video), and that bee keeping equipment you see me pull out of there is worth 100's of dollars by itself...

  The Nurture Right incubator is best suited for hatching backyard eggs, where tossing and turning won't matter because they are sturdy backyard eggs. Ebays ordered eggs are very delicate so it's best to use the Maticoopx because the eggs don't get rolled around, it just tilts the eggs and the eggs' membranes don't get any more damaged.

Even if it wasn't designed that way, but now makes contact with the metal frame, it is now a ground loop. If the "one bare wire" was a disconnected wire that used to be paired with the hot wire, then he "may" be safe as long as he is certain that no part of that bare wire is touching the metal frame.

  ​@AdamHowellProvo Hey Adam, thanks for commenting. The second wire is not connected or making contact with any part of the frame. It is connected to the fourth coil and is insulated from the coil all the way to where it is connected to the thermostat. So this setup shouldn't be any more dangerous than if I plugged in a box fan as far as I know, but I'm always open to learning more. As for the fan, if you can, send me a link to what you found online. Anything comparable to this is easily over $100 from what I have seen. If you found one that cheap, that would be awesome for people to know where. Thansk.

  Please note that this is different from a box fan because the fan motor housing is metal, and can conduct electricity. Typical box fan has an entirely plastic housing, so doesnt need grounding. Going from a 2 prong setup to a 3 prong setup with the green wire connected to the motor metal housing would be the ideal way to repair this fan. :)

• 
  @growinggreenways56236 ай бұрын

  As the chick is developing, it can get attached or stuck to the shell. Rotating keeps that from happening. And yes, the mother hen does rotate her eggs by moving them around with her beak while she sits on them or when she gets off the nest/moves around in the nest. Much of the artificial incubation process is modeled after what the hen does instinctually.

Damp paper or cardboard is a good place to grow bacteria, especially if it is against the shell of an egg. It is probably best not to to reuse it, but if so, it needs to be sterilized between hatches. Not just on the outside but all the way through. For cardboard, heating to 170 degrees for 60 minutes will do the trick.
