Best for hatcheries, small poultry operations, homesteads, farms, poultry enthusiasts and more. NOTE: Hatcher sold separately*
Humisonic TM Humidity Control: Ensuring precise humidity control, the HB500S's HumisonicTM System maintains the internal humidity according to your set parameters. Simple to use, just add water to the tank above, and for additional support, fill the internal bottom pan with water as needed.
AirRoute TM Ventilation System: The HB500S is equipped with the AirRoute TM ventilation fan system, which is IP55 certified and uses minimal energy. This advanced system offers protection from voltage fluctuations and first-class defense against dust and humidity. You can rest assured that your incubator will maintain consistent temperature and humidity throughout.
TurnX TM Egg Turners - Vibration-Free and Energy-Efficient: The incubator boasts TurnX TM egg turners, reducing stress on your eggs with their vibration-free operation. These precisely calibrated turners turn a full 45 degrees each side, ensuring high hatch rates while using minimal energy, thereby saving you money.
Innovative Active Periodic Cooling (APC): The HB500S features the groundbreaking Active Periodic Cooling technology, a first in the market. Mimicking the natural incubation process where birds leave the nest, allowing eggs to cool and release moisture, APC adjusts the temperature and humidity within the incubator to replicate this natural cooling and dehumidifying process. This unique feature is especially crucial for hatching goose eggs, significantly increasing hatch rates.
Advanced Alarm System for Monitoring: The HB500S features two advanced alarms for high/low temperature and high/low humidity, each with a room sensor. These alarms enable you to monitor both the internal and external conditions, ensuring optimal incubation conditions at all times. You can ditch your hygrometer and thermometer with our self-regulated egg incubators.
Versatile Capacity for Various Bird Eggs: The HB500S is exceptionally versatile, accommodating a wide range of poultry eggs. This model can set up to 1386 quail eggs, 784 partridge eggs, 672 pheasant eggs, 490 chicken eggs, 336 turkey eggs, 336 duck eggs, 210 goose eggs, and 210 peacock eggs. Purchase hatcher separately*
Adjustable Egg Setter Trays: With 14 adjustable egg setter trays accommodating a variety of egg sizes, the HB500S is perfect for a wide range of poultry breeding eggs, including quail, chicken, peacock, and more. Its large capacity of up to 500 chicken eggs and adaptable tray dividers make it an ideal incubator for those who require versatility in their hatching endeavors. You must purchase Setter Tray Covers (SKU: FLX35Y-K) if you want to set and hatch in the same unit.
User-Friendly and Maintenance-Friendly: Designed for easy maintenance, the HB500S offers front and back access, simplifying cleaning and upkeep. This feature, along with its user-friendly interface, makes the incubator approachable and easy to use, even for those new to incubation.
Patented Low-Energy Design for Cost-Effective Operation: Embrace the cost-saving benefits of the HB500S's patented technology, designed for low energy consumption without compromising on performance.

Active Periodic Cooling (First in the market)
Most birds leave the nest, at least once, during incubation. During this time, the eggs cool down and release moisture. Active Periodic Cooling (APC) changes the temperature and humidity within the incubator to reenact the cooling and dehumidifying process that eggs would receive naturally from the mother bird leaving the nest. This unique addition to our incubators increases hatch rates. This is extremely important if you hatch goose eggs!
Egg Turners: TurnX TM
Reduce stress on your eggs with vibration-free egg turners. These calibrated turners ensure high hatch rates and use minimal energy - saving you money!

You can rest assure that your system will maintain the same temperature and humidity throughout the whole cabinet.
Humidity: Humisonic TM
HB incubators always keep the internal temperature and humidity to your set parameters. Our HumisonicTM System provides humidity to the incubator when necessary. Just add water to the tank up top! Also, don't forget to fill your bottom pan with water for additional support - as needed.

Need to hatch out of this incubator? Quickly convert the current setter trays to hatching baskets by removing the separators and purchasing Setter Tray Covers FLEXY35Y. These covers fit our Setter and Combined HB Series Incubators.
110V/60Hz
Our incubators cannot be powered via solar.
With our HB models, the setter trays are placed in an anodized aluminum frame. The frame will turn 45 degrees in each direction, slowly, over the course of one hour. Even with the tilt of the frame, your eggs are safe to set and will not fall out of the tray.
I currently have everything from quail, chicken, Peafowl, Turkey and more in there. Easy set up and if you have to open the door to load or unload a tray the incubator quickly comes back up to Temp and Humidity.
Thank you for the review on our easy set up incubator - The Hatching Time Team
I'm very impressed at the quality of the incubator, along with ease of setup. This is my first cabinet incubator and was torn between a few different options on the market. I chose Hatching Time over others due to high recommendations from quail and chicken breeders. Everyone also spoke highly of their customer service, which I get to testify myself, is first class. My turnX actuator wiring was separated upon unboxing, whether it happened during their box up, in transit or when I was opening it, didn't matter they sent a replacement no questions asked and in a very timely manner. Doreen was incredibly helpful and responsive! Thank you and we plan on purchasing more incubators or hatchers from you because of what we have experienced already.
Thank you for the review, Vinny. We work hard to provide the best customer service and look forward to sharing your comments with our team - The Hatching Time Team
