Every poultry farmer dreams of getting healthy young birds with a high incubation yield. It is easy to implement your plan if you carefully choose a model. Considering different options for the TGB incubator (flexible household thermal container), you can choose a model that will allow you to incubate with the best performance.
By going to the official website of the manufacturer, you can consider many options not only for incubators, but also for other necessary things for home and family (thermal bags, thermal blankets, thermal mattresses, thermal containers) with a detailed description. A group of like-minded people, creators of universal devices, directs all their knowledge and experience (20 years of development) to the improvement of devices for birds, animals and humans.
Consider options
All manufactured models, for the convenience of the consumer, can be presented with:
- automatic rotation (marked with the symbol "A");
- the property of air ionization (“L” because the Chizhevsky chandelier is used);
- the ability to connect to a car battery in emergency situations (“P”);
- moisture meter ("B");
- the possibility of automatic cooling (important for the incubation of eggs of waterfowl "Bio +").
At the same time, the device for backup power and the moisture meter can be purchased both as a set and separately.
The number next to each model indicates nothing more than the number of chicken eggs that can be placed in a container. So the TGB-70 model will allow the poultry farmer to put 70 chicken eggs in the tray (it is one in this modification). In the model with the number 140, there are two trays, then three and four.
The rotation of all trays is carried out by tilting the cassettes in different directions in turn (with an interval of 2 hours at an angle of 30-45 ᵒ). This is facilitated by a reverse mechanism, consisting of a drum with a cable, which is attached to different corners of the cassettes.
The device of incubators
All models are created on the same principle and consist of:
- insulating cover;
- frame;
- internal cassettes;
- extension systems;
- egg trays;
The frame with cassettes is fixed by welding, the material is stainless steel. Plastic troughs contribute to moisture.
At the bottom of the cassettes are attached:
- chandelier ionizer;
- fans;
- sensors of the main indicators;
- bioacoustic device.
Mysterious bioacoustics and ionization
The incubators use the bioacoustic principle to stimulate the hatchability of chicks. A chick, before hatching, emits sounds of a certain frequency, this property was studied in the last century. Scientists have adopted this biological process and used its analogue in the device. As a result, stimulating sounds should:
- synchronize incubation ;
- promote rapid hatching.
Another innovation - the air ionizer is designed to improve the hatchability of young animals. This is done by increasing the number of negatively charged ions. They contribute to the best development of the embryo.
Features of large-sized incubators
Considering models for incubation of 210 and 280 eggs, large dimensions should be taken into account. To facilitate transportation, the developers have created a collapsible-sliding system.
The TGB-210 incubator is designed for three trays and has a collapsible frame. When purchasing the device, the consumer independently carries out the assembly, which is not difficult.
The TGB-280 incubator model has four trays and not only a collapsible frame, but also retractable cassettes from each other. Assembling the device is not difficult.
When moving, all movable cassettes are attached to the frame by removable transport elements. This allows you to get the device in perfect condition.
Subtleties of operation
By purchasing an incubator of the selected model, it is not at all difficult to mount it and start hatching eggs. The instructions for use are written clearly and clearly, it will explain in detail how to:
- enable the selected model;
- pour water and what temperature;
- insert trays;
- carry out turns of cassettes (with and without a machine);
- select the time to stop turning the eggs ;
- irrigate (if necessary);
- get ready to pip and hatch.
The instruction contains important and necessary instructions that will warn against unpleasant situations during a thunderstorm and in case of malfunctions of a different nature.

Disadvantages of TGB incubators
The biggest disadvantage of this type of incubator is the lack of a viewing window. The possibility of controlling the hatching process is not provided, and this improves its own characteristics.
Feedback from poultry farmers suggests that the high price of innovative models of TGB incubators is not justified. Care and feeding of the breeding flock, and proper breeding selection allows you to get high-quality young animals with a high yield and in cheaper incubators.
