Incubators are specialized devices that create favorable environmental conditions for broods of young poultry. Initially, they were heat-insulated premises or containers that were subjected to constant heating by burning burning and easily combustible material (for example, straw) or exposures under direct sunlight (relevant for equatorial countries). Today, home incubators are small “boxes” (usually plastic or light alloy) that are equipped with special turning and heating devices.
Mass trading in incubators for the needs of the population in Russia began around the 1970s — it was at that time that the peak of agricultural activity occurred. The products of domestic (and some Western) manufacturing companies are still famous for their quality, but recently they have been neglected, preferring Chinese apparatuses. A tendency has emerged during the active promotion and growth of Chinese online stores - many consumers have found that their product is almost indistinguishable in terms of quality, but more advantageous in terms of cost. In this regard, we have selected the top ten best incubators for hatching chicks found in the directory of AliExpress. The following parameters were chosen as the main criteria for the rating:
- supplier reliability level;
- the popularity of the product among users;
- incubator capacity for laying eggs;
- abundance of functions, technical characteristics of the device;
- matching the level of cost to the overall quality.
Top 10 best incubators with AliExpress
10 Fully Automatic Incubator JX
Price for Aliexpress: from 3 171 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.4
At AliExpress you can find both mini incubators and professional machines working on farms and the largest enterprises. Before us is just such a model. This is no longer a small tray with a couple dozen chicken eggs, but a whole cupboard in which several hundred on 4 levels fit. Each tray is equipped with its own automatic drive, and if necessary, the number of levels can be increased.
The case of the incubator is completely sealed, and the ventilation is carried out with the help of two powerful coolers, and a fresh-air snail. The control of the machine itself is fully automated. You set up the necessary parameters yourself, and you can also monitor the situation inside the box without opening the door, and without disturbing the internal atmosphere. As they say in reviews to this product, similar machines are used in farms, but they can be used at home if you plan to breed numerous offspring, or alternatively just take this incubator with a reserve for the future development of your farm.
9 Dogstory
Price for Aliexpress: from 9 144 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5
Before us is the best fully automatic incubator that does not require the personal presence of a person. Enough at the initial stage will set all the necessary parameters, and the machine itself will turn the eggs, as well as provide forced ventilation when excess moisture accumulates, and also regulate the temperature inside the housing.Unfortunately, there is no Russian interface in the sensor menu, but, in fact, it is not needed here. Everything is clear on an intuitive level, and each parameter is indicated by a special icon, which excludes the possibility of becoming confused in the settings.
Another advantage of this model, often noted in the reviews - the presence of transparent top glass. It is known that at different stages of maturation, the eggs require different heating regimes. Here an ultraviolet lamp is built in, which allows the eggs to shine through and instantly determine the degree of maturation, adjusting the settings and exposing the parameters without opening the case and pulling them out. And finally, one more plus - capacity. Here it is 56 eggs, and the incubator itself can be safely called a mini, since its dimensions are only 30 by 30 centimeters, that is, you do not have to look for a separate place to install it at home.
8 Meigar
Price for Aliexpress: from 1 559 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6
The task of the mini-incubator is not only to perform uniform heating, but also to keep warm inside the machine. And the best insulation material today is foam. Plastic is not as effective, although more durable. This model is made, or rather is covered with a thick layer of foam, which is excellent in retaining heat and saving energy. But this is not the only advantage. In addition, you can select the sensor and an automatic mechanism that can turn trays on its own after a specified period of time.
Of course, potential buyers are interested in the question, but what about the delivery, because the foam is a rather fragile material. According to the reviews on Aliexpress, and this seller has quite a lot of them, the device comes intact, thanks to quality packaging. They also praise the speed of processing the order and relatively fast delivery, and for such a platform as Aliexpress, these are very important factors.
7 Adhere to fly
Price for Aliexpress: from 1 319 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7
Many of us are accustomed to the fact that the most modern incubator is a complex machine with a lot of additional functions. But in fact, a simple lamp with a warm light is enough for procreation. True, one difficulty arises - the eggs must be turned over regularly, ensuring uniform heating, and this device is perfect for these purposes.
This is an egg tray with 63 cells, equipped with a small motor, which reverses the design. Nothing complicated or high-tech, but if necessary, an automatic control module can be easily mounted to it, which will itself give a signal to the action after a certain time. At AliExpress, the purchase of such parts separately will cost less, and there is a real opportunity to save money. In addition, in this case, you are not limited to the size of a standard incubator, and you can assemble a machine of any size, increasing or decreasing it as necessary. In addition, the seller with Aliexpress offers a complete set with motors of different capacities, which means you can use such a mini incubator with any eggs, not just chicken ones.
6 DULONG DL56
Price for Aliexpress: from 3 867 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7
The main problem of many incubators is the lack of full automation. Such actions as airing or turning eggs have to be carried out independently, and all parameters are monitored personally. In this model, you can forget about personal presence. High-precision sensor not only displays all the necessary information on the display, such as temperature and humidity, but also independently performs all necessary actions.
For example, you can program a machine to flip the cells after a certain time. If you leave it by default, the tray will roll over every two hours. Temperature and humidity are also manually controlled, or set automatically. And the main advantage is the presence of an excess humidity detector.If for some reason, the parameters were set incorrectly, and a dangerous amount of moisture accumulated inside the incubator, the machine will give a signal about this and also take the necessary measures by starting forced ventilation or lowering the temperature.
5 jusenda YZ9-7
Price for Aliexpress: from 1 219.45 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
The fifth place in the ranking is taken by the dome-shaped mini-incubator jusenda YZ9-7. Low sales figures are due to two factors. Firstly, it is designed for laying, consisting of only seven eggs (which is too frivolous for serious farmers). Secondly, the product relatively recently went on sale, and you should not hope for a general interest in it.
At first glance, everything seems fine in electronics: there are humidity and temperature sensors, a work indicator and a simple one (but a really good display). However, the developers did not bother to equip the system with more reliable structural elements. In this regard, very often there is a breakdown of the humidity sensor, since it is not the most important thing in the incubators. As for the thermostat, it is very stable (but it still periodically checks the temperature inside). In general, jusenda YZ9-7 is a good, albeit not very roomy incubator, created specifically for “micro-host
4 TOPINCN automatic egg incubator
Price for Aliexpress: from 3,713 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
Since the capacity of trays for laying eggs is practically key, we simply could not get past the compact model of an automatic incubator from TOPINCN, designed for a tab of 10 eggs. At the first glance at the model it is difficult to discern any obvious advantages, since all of them manifest themselves exclusively in working moments.
The fact is that manufacturers have equipped the device with a reliable manager (and executive) unit placed on top of the lid. According to consumers, who had time to try out the incubator in the business, the electronics work without failures and throughout the time of the withdrawal maintains an optimal environment inside the flask. The only exceptions are those instances that already on delivery and unpacking have visible defects. Fortunately, the store in every possible way meets the customer’s needs and reimburses the losses incurred (either by returning the funds or by sending the goods). Moreover, the cost of the incubator is rather big and amounts to more than three thousand rubles.
3 jusenda YZ-24
Price for Aliexpress: from 4 587 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9
The third line of the rating is occupied by another representative of the jusenda company - a brilliant incubator of the YZ-24 model. Designed for a clutch consisting of 24 eggs, it is the most efficient apparatus for small households.
From the pleasant features of the model, you can highlight the presence of swivel trays, thanks to which the tab will receive balanced portions of light. The display is convenient and clearly displays all the relevant information on the part of the operating modes. And if everything is fine in electronics and functionality, the design features have a number of small flaws. So, in particular, a number of buyers at the start of use had problems with a loosely fitting lid. This fact is not critical and is “cured” by simply crushing a heavy thing from above, but it gives some negative effect. Fortunately, the distributor willingly makes up for the shortcomings of his product with strong evidence.
2 DULONG DL48
Price for Aliexpress: from 2 538 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9
A high-quality incubator DULONG DL48, created for medium and large farms, stopped one step from the leading position. If we abstract from the fact that the device was built on the basis of a simple plastic box (divided into a cover and a base), then by the level of information content and ease of use it is among the unconditional leaders.
The DULONG DL48 display contains an exhaustive amount of information: a day counter, an automatic egg switch timer, a hygrometer (moisture meter) and a digital thermometer.In addition, there is a warning system in case any of the monitored parameters goes beyond the permissible value. The incubator is suitable for breeding all types of poultry (chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, etc.) and, judging by the feedback from users, it works surprisingly stably: all the deficiencies encountered were somehow caused by damage to the container during transportation or even at the stage manufacturing.
1 DADYPET
Price for Aliexpress: from 7 488 rubles.
Rating (2019): 5.0
This is the most expensive and at the same time the highest-quality incubator of those that are presented in the catalog of the AliExpress online store. The apparatus manufactured by DADYPET contains a clutch of 56 eggs, and will be used mainly in medium and large farms. The main difference of this incubator from others is the presence of a light source built into the pan. Trays are rotatable and obey the mechanism, working on a timer. There is a day counter, a highly accurate hygrometer and a thermometer + warning system for audible signal in case of deviation of one of the monitored values.
Another important fact is that the DADYPET incubator has the highest user rating. They simply can not find reasons for cavils: neither the speed of delivery, nor the quality of electronics, nor the design and execution of the case give them any small reason for discontent. Even despite the high cost, this device occupies the first line of the rating.
