Incubators & Brooders for High Hatch Rates
Professional incubation technology for hobby breeders, beginners, and small-scale operations – The PD, CT, and HB Series
The success of artificial incubation depends largely on the technology behind it.
Temperature, humidity, and egg turning must remain stable over the full 21‑day incubation period (for chickens).
When you purchase an incubator from Prodi, you are not buying a “toy device,” but technology based on the standards of professional poultry breeding — scaled down for hobby use.
Which incubator fits your plans?
On this page, you will primarily find two series designed for different needs:
PD Series: Full control through manual fine‑tuning and all‑round visibility
This incubator series is designed for breeders who prefer direct control over incubation parameters and want to closely monitor the entire process.
Unlike fully automatic cabinet incubators, this series provides the technical foundation for precise manual adjustment of incubation conditions.
Functional features for targeted incubation management
- Manual climate control:
Humidity is not automated (e.g., via Humisonic) but regulated manually using the included water tray. This allows users to adjust and optimize humidity levels according to incubation phase and species. - Process monitoring:
The transparent housing is designed to allow uninterrupted visual observation of the entire hatching process — without opening the lid and disturbing the internal climate. - Material properties:
The high‑quality plastic housing ensures even air circulation, is far more durable than simple styrofoam units, and can be cleaned thoroughly after each cycle. - Universal compatibility:
Because humidity is manually controlled, the PD series is suitable for a wide range of poultry species — from waterfowl to ornamental pheasants.
CT Series: High efficiency and fully automatic incubation control
The CT Series is designed as a cabinet incubator and is the ideal solution for users who incubate regularly and rely on maximum stability and automation.
As a price‑performance leader, this series combines professional features with excellent economic efficiency.
Technical highlights and performance features
- Maximum hatch rates:
With precise control and a stable housing design, hatch rates of up to 95% can be achieved under optimal conditions. - Airroute technology:
Active ventilation ensures continuous and even air circulation throughout the entire chamber — essential for larger egg quantities. - Fully automatic management:
Ideal for users who prefer autonomous operation. Egg turning, temperature control, and humidity regulation are fully automated, significantly reducing daily monitoring. - Energy optimization:
The insulated housing ensures an extremely stable incubation climate while minimizing energy consumption. - Capacity:
Thanks to its cabinet design, the CT Series offers significantly more space than tabletop units, making it ideal for scaling up poultry production.
Fully automatic incubation: More comfort, greater safety
Why choose a fully automatic incubator?
Because it eliminates common sources of error.
- Automatic turning:
The system turns the eggs at correct intervals — no need to open the lid or disturb the climate. - Digital control:
Sensors monitor temperature far more precisely than any analog thermometer. - Alarm function:
Many models alert you when water needs refilling or parameters deviate.
HB Series: Professional precision with TurnX turning technology
The HB Series represents the technological pinnacle for breeders who demand maximum safety and reproducibility.
It is designed for intensive use and provides exceptional stability for valuable hatching eggs.
Technical differentiation and performance features
- TurnX technology:
Unlike the Conturn system used in the CT Series, the HB Series uses the TurnX tilting mechanism. The trays are gently tilted, providing a calm, natural movement that minimizes mechanical stress on the embryo. - Fully automatic Humisonic humidification:
The integrated Humisonic system ensures precise humidity regulation without manual intervention. - High‑performance ventilation:
An enhanced ventilation system guarantees identical oxygen supply and temperature on every level — even at full capacity. - Maximum climate stability:
The housing is engineered for high thermal inertia. External temperature fluctuations have no impact on the interior, protecting embryo development and reducing energy costs.
