ABSTRACT:
An incubator for incubating and hatching eggs includes a removable air control unit for humidifying, heating or cooling, and circulating air in the incubator. The air control unit is positioned between a pair of racks containing egg trays with removable inserts to accommodate differently sized eggs. Sensors monitor various parameters such as temperature and relative humidity. A computer controls the air control unit to maintain operator-selected values of the sensed parameters.
