Methods and systems in egg hatching
10420329 · 2019-09-24 · ·

The present disclosure relates to methods and systems in egg hatching, based on hatching eggs in a tray (2), comprising arranging eggs in a pattern in or on the tray, comprising egg supporting positions and holes together defining the pattern, wherein the holes are dimensioned to allow chicks (27) after hatching to pass there through into a crate (4), detecting at least one of numbers of unhatched eggs (22) in or on the tray; numbers of dead chicks in the crate; and numbers of objectionable chicks in the crate, and supplementing or removing chicks to or from the crate in correspondence therewith.

Egg lifting device, and associated transfer systems and methods
10351356 · 2019-07-16 · ·

An egg transfer system is provided. Such a system includes a first securing arrangement configured to engage and deflect about an egg such that the egg is capable of being seated within the first securing arrangement. A second securing arrangement is opposingly positioned with respect to the first securing arrangement, the second securing arrangement being configured to engage and deflect about an egg such that the egg is capable of being seated within the second securing arrangement. The first and second securing arrangements are configured to interact through relative movement with respect to one another, such interaction thereby causing an egg to be transferred therebetween. Associated systems and methods are also provided.

Incubator
20190208749 · 2019-07-11 ·

A tabletop style incubator that includes an integrated water reservoir in the form of channels formed in the floor of the base tray and fill ports that allow water to be added to the incubator without removing the top assembly from the bottom assembly. The incubator incorporates conventional incubator features, such as, electronic controls for heat, humidity and time, and an automated egg turner. The base tray of the bottom assembly base tray includes a pair of thermoplastic shells that are bonded together around an inner expanded polystyrene core. The base tray is also configured with a pair of recessed channels that serve as two separate water troughs or reservoirs. A fill port extends through opposed sidewalls of the base tray into each channel and is enclosed by a removable plug.

METHODS FOR PROMOTING PRODUCTION OF FEMALE EMBRYOS IN EGGS
20190191672 · 2019-06-27 ·

The present invention relates to a method for promoting production of female embryos in fertilized eggs, comprising steps of: incubating said eggs; generating at least one type of energy with a predetermined energy profile; and simultaneously generating a pre-determined profile of a non-energy parameter by means of an energy generation device, applying both energy profile and the non-energy parameter to the eggs; and, collecting the eggs; wherein said method is non-toxic to the embryos, the application of both the energy profile and the non-energy parameter increases the fraction of females in the hatched chicks.
