Selection and storage of eggs

The female is ready for laying through six months. That is when her puberty begins. The male is one month older due to the fact that this process takes longer.

Indo-egg should be medium in size, slightly larger than chicken, but no less. It has a white color, oval shape. The average weight will be 80 g. It is necessary to carefully examine it for damage. If you acquire germs, then freshness is also important. For an incubator, they must be at least seven days after laying. But not more than two weeks. Those who breed bred for many years, advise not to take too polluted eggs. Incubation of musk ducks will then be done well when the eggs are the same size.

Did you know? The quality of the egg is determined by the dark body (germ), which is clearly visible. And it will help to verify this ovoskop. If the airbag is enlarged or located at the sharp end, and not in a dull one, then this indicates a violation of the membrane-supported shells.

After checking the freshness of the eggs do not wash. If you want to remove dirt, then sandpaper is suitable for this. Rubbing it lightly will remove all contaminated areas. Do not forget about accuracy, so as not to damage the shell. Otherwise, the development of the embryo may be complicated.

Cooling is done from the ninth day. Start at five minutes. Then you can increase the time to 30 minutes.

Egg incubation mode

The incubation table for indoutok gives a fairly detailed idea of ​​the content of the material. But let's consider it in stages. AT first week bookmarks need to closely monitor the temperature and coups done twice a day. During this period, the organs of the future duckling are formed.

Did you know? In order to follow the coups, you can mark the sides with signs on the shell. So you will not forget about any bud.

In second period The first week is accompanied by good ventilation. Air exchange promotes the removal of carbon dioxide that accumulates in the incubator.It is also necessary to turn over twice a day. Addition will be a solution of potassium permanganate. The color should be pale pink, i.e. non-concentrated. It will serve as a cooling. You can replace the solution and ordinary water. Spray after airing the incubator.

Third week accompanied by an increase in embryo temperature. Therefore, the eggs must be cooled. Do not forget about a sufficient level of humidity, which will ensure the satisfactory development of embryos.

In recent days, cooling is not performed.
