In domestic poultry farming, inexpensive economical automatic incubators with a capacity of up to 100 eggs have received the greatest use. They are easy to manage and maintain, and maintaining the required humidity and temperature in automatic mode allows you to ensure the hatchability of birds at the level of 80-100%.
We bring to your attention an overview of household and semi-professional incubators Citytech from Izhevsk manufacturer. Note that the company has representative offices in Moscow and St. Petersburg, where you can get acquainted with the entire list of manufactured models.
What models are included in the series
Based on the information provided on the official website of the manufacturer, they now offer 4 modifications of incubators of various capacities. All of them are successfully used for breeding chickens , ducks , geese , turkeys , quails and other poultry. Implemented in Sititek semi-professional and domestic incubators for poultry farming, the automatic control system for operating modes minimizes human involvement. Temperature and humidity are controlled and maintained by a built-in mini-computer, while the error does not exceed 1-2%.
The main characteristics of egg incubators:
| Model | Capacity, chicken eggs | Power consumption, W | Incubator weight, kg | Incubation and hatching |
| Sitetek 48 | 48 | 80 | 5 | Combined |
| Sititek 56 LED | 56 | 80 | 5 | Combined |
| Sitek 112 | 112 | 160 | 7,7 | Combined |
| incubat Or 72S | 72 | 120 | 7 | Combined |
- Sititek 48 is a compact incubator , for which there is a place even in a small apartment. The capacity is quite enough to provide yourself with young birds. All air parameters and egg turning are carried out automatically. During periods of power outage, it can operate on a conventional 12-volt battery.
- Sititek 56 LED is an improved model equipped with LED backlight. Thanks to this, it became possible to control the condition of the eggs without the use of an ovoscope . The implemented alarm system notifies when the temperature and humidity go beyond the set limits.
- Sititek 112 is a model with increased capacity. It is also equipped with an automatic egg turning system, a hygrometer and a thermostat. Information about the operating mode (temperature and humidity) is displayed on a fairly informative display.
- incubatOr 72S is a semi-professional incubator for private poultry farmers. The heating system is implemented through the use of a heating tape, so that the temperature in all zones is the same. In addition, it is equipped with an ultrasonic humidifier and an automatic water refilling system, which greatly simplifies operation.
Sititek Incubators - Design Features
The incubators of this series are distinguished by plastic translucent cases that allow you to control the condition of the eggs without opening the lid. Those who have used these devices note the success of this solution, especially for the hatching stage. At the same time, the incubator is quite easy to wash and disinfect before loading the eggs.
The system for switching to a spare power source has been successfully implemented. In the event of a power outage in automatic mode, the power is transferred to a conventional 12V car battery. When power is restored, the battery is switched off. The system is fast enough, which eliminates the possibility of cooling the incubation material.
The incubator uses a removable water tank, so you can add liquid without opening the case cover. Maintaining a given level of humidity is carried out by a forced ventilation system. At the same time, despite the presence of fans, the unit operates almost silently.
For convenience, the manufacturer completes the incubators with a detailed description, which greatly simplifies management and maintenance. Practice has shown high efficiency of installations, the average hatchability when using high-quality eggs significantly exceeds 80%.
Benefits of Cititech Automatic Incubators
Feedback from the owners of Sititek incubators allows us to determine the main advantages of this series of equipment:
- The presence of 4 programs that set the operating mode for the output of chickens, goslings, ducklings and quail. For other birds, the temperature and humidity can be set manually.
- The intelligent microprocessor control system allows maintaining the required parameters with high accuracy. Human participation is minimized, even the replenishment of the tank with water can be carried out automatically.
- The presence of backup power helps prevent damage to eggs in the event of a power outage in the network.
- If the temperature, humidity, switching to battery power is exceeded, the alarm system will notify the owner.
- It is completed with universal trays in which it is possible to lay an egg of any bird.
- The egg turning mechanism works automatically, turning on after a specified period of time.
Cititech incubators have proven to be exceptionally reliable and efficient equipment for the poultry industry. It should be noted that manufacturers offer quite a reasonable price for all models included in this series. And the warranty period is 12 months. Any of the models can be ordered directly on the website with delivery to all regions of the Russian Federation.
I choose an incubator. This company interested me and now I have no doubts that it is necessary to buy it.
I used several models of incubators from this manufacturer and none of them caused any complaints. Satisfied with this company.
I bought an incubator in 2018, I just ruined all the eggs and money and time. Horrible incubator. I recommend the manufacturer to revise the humidity scheme, since the lid is constantly covered with water drops and the chicks are all suffocating. And you can’t return money and time and labor. It’s insulting. I definitely don’t recommend it !!!
Natalia, good afternoon. This is your opinion about which incubator? Citytech?
firstly, this is not an automatic incubator. With a small load of 20-30 eggs, everything is normal, but at full load, it is almost impossible to keep a humidity of 50-55. with humidity in this incubator at full load, the trouble is, and the most important minus is the wrong 12 volt power supply. The ovoscope is practically useless. I don’t advise starting with this incubator for the first time.
Ugly incubator. She also lost chickens, time, money.
We bought this incubator for 8 days, defended it, blinked the light and stopped working. I do not recommend it !!!!! It's a pity for the money spent))))
The incubator is not done yet! Sorry for the lost lives! Lost time, money and purebred chickens that could not hatch on their own! The ovoscope is useless, the humidity is difficult to control, there is always moisture on the lid.
Citytech96 is a disgusting sensor. The temperature must be calibrated, the humidity cannot be adjusted, the egg trays are warped from heating. I ruined three bookmarks of eggs. I regretted that I bought it. I do not advise buying.
I have the same problem with humidity. She ruined the ducklings, she sinned against herself that her hands were not from there. Now I'm struggling with chickens. Humidity is generally a problem, if 55% can still be kept somehow, then 45% is not realistic at all. Now I'm trying to put a damp cotton pad in the tray. Humidity is constantly rising.
The incubator is rubbish two bookmarks two chicks : the humidity does not keep the chicks do not hatch return the money
I bought a sititek incubator for 56 eggs. I laid it full, on the 16th day the incubator stopped heating and the display blinked, then it would turn off, then it would blink.
We have the same.
I do not advise!
Chickens hatched 50% Turkeys hatched 3%
Humidity cannot be set as required
Temperature is also a problem.
shitty incubator. laid eggs four times, bought expensive, all in vain. the birds were suffocating. waste of money and time
We bought a Sititek 112 automated incubator. I gave that kind of money, but the incubator did not justify itself at all. More than 100 eggs hatched from the laying for the first time 4, then 7, then 3. I was tormented with the incubator, since the temperature sensor readings do not completely correspond to the temperature in the incubator, the difference from above and below is from 3 to 8 degrees. Chickens never hatched from the bottom bookmark, as they were steamed. And wasted time and money.
not a very good incubator. the same bottom row does not work
Cititech112 nothing hatched 56 goose eggs to throw away
I have SITITEK 56 LED. covered himself on the third day. began to turn off. Well, the incubator was simple. changed without problems...
The sititek incubator for 48 eggs was the best for me. Over the summer, we manage to grow such a number of chickens, which we sell and process into stew.
I can’t make relatives humidity 50 and that’s it, tell me
Hello.
I want to share the happiness that overtook me when buying this incubator. Let me tell you right away: this incubator does not work. But before I understood this, I had to lay three bookmarks in it. The first bookmark is 48 eggs, the next two are 96 eggs each. It's good that the egg is not purchased for more than 300 rubles. Tried it on my egg. I must say right away that an old foam plastic incubator was launched in parallel and, we constantly have mother hens. The first bookmark shocked ... .. Out of 48 eggs, 3 chickens.
And then everyone is sick. Then they died. They began to check, hesitate and were horrified. The temperature in different places varies up to 6 degrees. The meteorological station showed completely different humidity and temperature in different places of the incubator. We decided to insulate from the outside. The second tab of 96 eggs hatched 12 chicks, all with huge priests, later, almost all died.
Constantly kept in touch with one of the managers ... .. We heard a lot of advice from him, but not a single one was sensible.
We decided to continue to refine it on our own, but in vain ... ..
All moisture accumulates in the upper lid due to insufficient ventilation in a confined space, then, rain falls on the eggs.
We decided to drill additional holes in the top cover. Slightly reduced the flow of the fan. In short ... .. 3rd bookmark of 96 eggs 21 chickens.
And again big priests. And again, half of them died within 2 weeks. And in parallel, the old foam incubator, in which there are no such fans, displays a stable 80-85%.
An even better indicator for hens. Briefly speaking…….
This incubator, it does not work, and the people who assemble and sell it have no idea how an incubator should work. If you want to try it, you can order all the components, including the plastic box, on Ali Express and try to put it all together, which, in this case, is what the manufacturers do. In the future, we decided to send this incubator to the seller.
Everything was in agreement with the manager. But a month later, lo and behold, they also returned it to us by mail, with a reply that it was tested and that it works as it should. There was a lot more in the letter. Some things were strange to read. Especially about the temperature, which, as the seller claimed, should be different in different corners of the incubator……….. We are preparing documents for the court. I ask everyone who got into the same situation with these incubators to respond. The place will be more fun.
Good afternoon. I subscribe to your every word! I have a picture one to one with yours. Sorry for the time and money spent on this shit!!!
Maria
I, too, have an incubator of this firm only thrown
away money.
Three bookmarks of 56 for a total of 21 chickens. Of these, half have twisted legs and do not survive. The temperature cannot be adjusted. The difference is up to 4 degrees when measured at different points. In short, an expensive toy.
Do you have a city?
I'm shocked!!!! 5 days since the duck egg was laid 48 pcs. Humidity cannot be controlled. Condensation on side walls and lid. I read your review - what can we expect? Is it death!!?? It remains only to hope for the best. I will share the result.
Thanks for the comment. I wanted to buy this incubator, but already changed my mind. I'd rather buy another foam one - I've been using them for more than 10 years.
how I regret not reading these reviews before I bought this incubator ... I sit and cry now, about wasted time, money, eggs and unfinished chicks.
I do not advise a disgusting incubator, sorry for the money, time and not received offspring of a bird
We bought the “Sititek 32 led” incubator in 2019, 8 chickens hatched from 32 eggs, then it burned down. Sent in for warranty repair. In April 2020, not a single chicken hatched from the first bookmark, now we have put the second bookmark, we are waiting for the result, we have put an additional thermometer, the temperature does not match the readings on the display. It's horrible
Citytech 32 incubator, bought in March 2020. I set it up for a week, it doesn’t hold the temperature at all and the difference with the standard is as much as 4 degrees !!! With grief, I set T. 37.6 in half, laid the eggs, controlled several times daily, and on the sixth day the standard showed 44 degrees, while the scoreboard showed a calm 37.6. How is that in general? People, don't take this g.a.v.n.o!!! From the first bookmark out of 32, the output was 11 pieces with loose yolks, the second bookmark - not a single chicken! It's a pity the money and time wasted. Those who promote this Chinese shit are people without shame and conscience. I dream that all your products will be hammered flat in your ass!
Why so much negativity! I have a citytech incubator 32, 26 chicks hatched out of 30 eggs, all are alive / healthy, they are already walking around the yard. Maybe of course I have a successful model, I do not know. I also dealt with foam plastic, the difference is heaven and earth! As if people forget all the other parameters - what affects the hatch.
I am not happy with the incubator Citytek 32, I made two bookmarks 5 and 6 chickens hatched, tomorrow the chickens from the 3rd bookmark should be hatched, which I doubt about a good brood, the temperature and humidity increased throughout the period
For 112 eggs, I have the first bookmark of 50 pieces from 4.08.20. Waiting🤷♂️
I bought a sititek 112 incubator, laid the eggs, everything was gone, Humidity began to jump up and down I repair the electronics myself, dismantled the humidity sensor, soldered the wires directly bypassing the connector, everything worked anyway, I don’t like it
I gave my mother a sititek 64 for her birthday in January, the third bookmark, the result is zero. The display shows 38 degrees in real life 36. Tell me how to return it?
Not reliable breaks. Was under renovation. Broke down again. Eggs to throw away, and if you buy elite eggs, then the damage exceeds the cost of the incubator several times.
I bought Citytech 48. Complete rubbish. Made 2 full bookmarks. The first time 8 chickens hatched, the second - 3, and then sick. Doesn't hold temperature. Discrepancy with the control device up to several degrees. Sorry for the money and wasted time. The idea is good, but the result is disgusting! I absolutely do not recommend buying.
