Hatching Time 1000 Egg Incubator Kit – HB500S Setter + HB500H Hatcher

The Hatching Time 1000 Egg Incubator Kit (HB500S + HB500H) combines a 500-series egg setter and hatcher into one complete poultry incubation system. Designed for poultry breeders, hatcheries, and larger-scale homesteads, this two-unit setup gives you separate equipment for setting eggs and managing the final stages of incubation. With automated egg turning, controlled humidity, specialized ventilation, and Active Periodic Cooling, it helps simplify the work involved in managing larger batches of chicken, duck, quail, turkey, and other poultry eggs.

What makes this incubator kit different is its focus on recreating important conditions of natural incubation while giving you more control over the process. The HB500S Setter and HB500H Hatcher feature Hatching Time's TurnX™, AirRoute™, and Humisonic™ technologies, helping maintain the temperature, airflow, humidity, and egg-turning conditions your developing eggs need. Species-specific tray capacities also make it easier to plan incubation batches around the type of poultry you raise.

Key Features

• Complete Setter and Hatcher System: Includes the HB500S Setter and HB500H Hatcher, allowing you to manage egg setting and hatching in separate units. This makes it easier to organize incubation cycles and prepare eggs for the final hatching stage without relying on one machine for the entire process.
• Active Periodic Cooling (APC): Mimics the natural cooling and moisture-release process that occurs when a mother bird leaves her nest during incubation. The system adjusts temperature and humidity to recreate these conditions, an especially useful feature when incubating goose eggs.
• TurnX™ Automatic Egg Turning: Provides calibrated, vibration-free egg turning while using minimal energy. Regular automatic turning reduces the need for manual handling, helping simplify daily incubation routines while limiting unnecessary disturbance to developing eggs.
• AirRoute™ Ventilation System: Circulates air throughout the incubator to help maintain consistent temperature and humidity inside the cabinet. Its IP55-certified design also provides protection against dust and humidity, as well as voltage changes, helping support dependable equipment operation.
• Humisonic™ Humidity Control: Automatically supplies humidity according to your selected settings. Simply add water to the upper tank, with the bottom water pan providing additional humidity support as needed. Consistent humidity management is important because moisture conditions affect how eggs develop throughout incubation.
• Temperature and Humidity Alarms: High- and low-temperature and humidity alarms, along with room sensors, help alert you when conditions move outside your selected settings. This makes it easier to monitor the incubation environment and respond when adjustments are needed.
• Adjustable Egg Trays: Accommodate different egg sizes and poultry species, including quail, partridge, pheasant, chicken, turkey, duck, goose, and peacock. Species-specific capacities help you determine how many eggs can be set or hatched in each unit before planning a batch.

Designed for More Manageable Hatch Cycles

Managing a large number of eggs involves more than maintaining the right temperature. Egg turning, humidity, ventilation, and monitoring all need attention throughout the incubation period. The HB500S and HB500H work together to organize these stages, while their automated systems reduce some of the repetitive adjustments associated with incubation.

The separate setter and hatcher arrangement is particularly useful for breeders who work with staggered batches. You can use the setter for eggs in the earlier stages of incubation and the hatcher for eggs approaching hatch, helping keep your production schedule organized. The hatcher also includes anti-slip trays to help keep eggs and newly hatched chicks from sliding around during the hatching process.

With corrosion-resistant materials, insulated ABS plastic walls, and an anodized aluminum frame, this Hatching Time incubator kit is designed for regular use in poultry breeding and hatchery settings. Its digital interface also makes it easier to monitor conditions and adjust your settings as needed.
