The Ova-Easy cooling system is a unique new design which best mimics the natural way in which a mother would sit on the eggs, it gives the user the option of 60, 120, 180, 240, 300 or 360 minutes a day in which the eggs will be cooled. Once this cooling period is over, the incubator will then return to its correct incubation temperature.

Universal trays are adjustable for egg sizes from quail through to goose and are supplied as standard. Eggs are set on six levels and they can hatch on the included hatching trays. However, it is best practice to purchase to use a separate hatcher as supplied with this Combo pack for hatching.  

Optimise capacity 

Hatch even more eggs by optimising your egg capacity using the Brinsea Special insert trays . By using the Special insert trays, you can fit more eggs in the Ova-easy 580. See the comparison between the universal egg tray (as supplied as standard ) and the special insert trays. 

The Ova-Easy can also hold Rhea Eggs - Please call for more information

*Note: Egg capacities are an estimation provided by the manufacturer, they are based on their calculations, using ‘standard’ sized eggs. For further details please contact us.*

The Ova-Easy Series II Hatcher as supplied in the Combo pack is designed to complement the Ova-Easy 580 Series II setter incubator to provide a high quality, high capacity multi-stage incubation system. However, the Ova-Easy Series II Hatcher will also work with other incubators as setters including the smaller Ova-Easy models.

 Why a Separate hatcher?

Developing embryos need different conditions as they near hatching point which can be a problem if mixed with eggs at earlier stages of incubation. The specific requirements for eggs in the last 48 hours of incubation are: Turning of the eggs should cease - mechanisms can damage emerging chicks. Higher humidity levels are required than at earlier stages of incubation. High humidity reduces the chance of membranes drying and becoming tough as the chick hatches. The other distinct advantage of separate hatchers is that the mess associated with hatching is kept away from the setter and the hatcher can be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected between hatches. At no stage in this system are incubation conditions compromised.

Eggs are initially set in two levels (2 trays per level) As standard Ova-Easy Series II Hatchers are supplied with a set of 4 hatching trays with removable covers to prevent the chicks escaping.
