48 egg incubator

Haven’t used yet I left on holiday the day after receiving it it looks good happy with service

More than Happy

This Uneek incubator is most definitely the easiest no fuss one we have used. The temperature and humidity stay constant and we haven't had to adjust at all. It is well made with quality materials. The water bottle tips over easily so we have sat it in a larger jar so it can't tip. It is far easier to use than any others we have used in the past and better than we expected it to be. So so happy.

origin 48 the best incubator!!!!

I used the origin 48 to hatch 35 eggs and I was most surprised at the hatch rate I got at 70.5 percent hatch rate. This is way over the average of the rare breeds of birds I was hatching (including Marans). In all, I was very pleased. Being able to set the precise temp and humidity was very helpful. I do think you can work on some things: 1) when the incubator stops turning there's often a gap in the side where the tray stops and the chicks can get stuck in that area and we had to open the incubator to help a stuck chick, causing 2 of our other chicks to get shrink wrapped 2: the water spills extremely easily and I was a bit worried that the hose would kink up. Overall, I was very pleased with this incubator. I hope my information is helpful.
cheers Lachie

Hi Lachie,

Thanks again for taking the time to leave such a detailed and helpful review, and great work on that hatch rate — especially with rare breeds like Marans.

Just to clarify for anyone reading along: when the eggs go into lockdown, the turning tray should be removed and turning stops completely. At that point, the eggs sit directly on the hatching tray, which removes any gaps and prevents chicks from getting into trouble during hatch.

On the water system side, the current Origin 48 includes a sealed bottle lid and a right-angle connector designed to prevent the hose from kinking and to reduce the chance of spills. If your incubator was purchased before these upgrades were released, we’ll be in touch to arrange sending the updated parts out to you.

We really appreciate the honest feedback and you sharing your experience — it’s great for other customers and helps us continue improving the range. If you ever need a hand or have questions during a hatch, just reach out.

Kind regards,
The Team at Uneek Poultry

Origin 48

Just had my first hatch with the Origin 48. Only 4 eggs didn't hatch! I set it up and didn't have to do a thing with temp and humidity until the last few days....humidity was over 85% but that was down to the weather in Qld. The only complaint I have is that I ordered it a few days before the Black Friday discount so paid full price.

A much better incubator

My first attempt at incubating chicken eggs was using a cheap incubator - not purchased from Uneek. Keeping the humidity in the correct range was a nightmare. There were many nights when the alarm would go off, and I'd have to get out of bed to fix the problem. From 19 eggs we only got 3 chicks.

It was this experience that led me to getting the Origin 48 incubator (with automatic humidity control) from Uneek. This has been a vast improvement. It works so much better. The last attempt resulted in 10 chicks from 15 eggs.

I would suggest two improvements. 1) have a user setting that controls the volume of the alarm - as I found the alarm volume to be too low, and; 2) when you press the candling button do NOT illuminate the control panel.

Other than those two things, it is a great product.
