When the pressure loss across the retort is larger than 18âwcg, it is a sign of a major problem building within that retort. Either the retort catalyst is becoming âsootedâ up and requires a carbon burnout or the retort has developed a hole and is leaking the endothermic gas into the hot zone of the generator.
When your babies have hatched, leave them in the incubator to dry off. Their peeping and noise will help encourage other chicks to hatch. It can take four hours or more to dry off, and you don't want them to get chilled. Once they are dry, transfer them quickly to your prewarmed brooder.hen your babies have hatched, leave them in the incubator to dry off.
