Our go-to on the farm. The Borotto® Real 49 Plus pairs antimicrobial housing for a cleaner start with automatic temperature control (86–104°F) and a built-in motor that turns eggs every hour—steady conditions without babysitting. When hatch day hits, lift the turner out and move eggs to the removable hatching tray so you can watch the show without wrestling the setup. Designed and made in Italy and backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty, this unit scales your hatch without the chaos.
Breeders running line-tracked sets, homesteaders moving beyond minis, classrooms and hatch-alongs that need reliability, and preservation nerds (same) who want more capacity, low drama.
Capacity: up to 49 chicken, duck, or pheasant eggs; up to 196 quail eggs
Compatibility: some goose, turkey, or peafowl eggs may fit; very large eggs won’t fit in the turner
Dimensions: 23.2″ L × 23.2″ W × 10.2″ H
Temperature: automatic monitoring/adjustment with digital display, 86–104°F set range
Turning: automatic—motor gently rotates eggs hourly
Hatching: removable egg tray for lockdown and hatch viewing
Construction: antimicrobial plastic housing
Origin & Warranty: Made in Italy; 2-year manufacturer warranty
Humidity: compatible with an optional humidity pump (available separately here)
Place & pre-test: Draft-free room (65–75°F). Run empty 12–24 hours to confirm stable temp.
Set eggs: Pointy end down; confirm species-appropriate temp/humidity.
Hands-off turning: Let the hourly auto-turner do the work.
Humidity control: Add water as directed or connect the optional pump for finer control.
Lockdown: Remove the turner and move eggs to the hatching tray (e.g., day 18 for chickens). No peeking during pip/zip unless necessary.
After hatch: Allow chicks to dry, then transfer to a pre-warmed brooder. Power down and clean thoroughly.
Unplug, cool, and wipe interiors with mild soap and warm water. Rinse/wipe and air-dry completely. Avoid abrasives and harsh chemicals that can scratch or leave residues.
Even great incubators can’t fix rough inputs. Shipped eggs often hatch lower than local/fresh due to transit stress. Your temperature stability, humidity, sanitation, and patience drive outcomes more than any single feature.
Includes a 2-year manufacturer warranty. Keep proof of purchase and follow the included instructions for service.
Ships with your farm-supply order. (If your cart also includes print-on-demand items, those will ship separately.)
Clancy Crowed It
“Open the lid mid-hatch and you’re helping shrink-wrap. Set it, watch it—don’t fuss it.”
