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.

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.

Great piece of kit!

Stylish, looks professionally built and thus far working as instructed. The only part I’m not sold on has been the water delivery. The hose is quite soft and kinks frequently over the lip of the bottle. Also the bottle has no closure so if knocked over will create a spill. Not sure why they don’t have a sort of fitting in a lid that the hose connects to like in the machine to stop the crimping. Hopefully they develop a fix in accessories so can upgrade.

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback — we really appreciate it.

We’re glad to hear your Origin 48 is performing well and that the build quality has made a good impression. Your comments about the water system are completely understood. The silicone hose does need to stay soft for the system to work properly, but we agree it can still kink over the bottle edge.

We have already come up with a fix for that which includes an upgraded lid with hose fitting to keep everything secure and prevents the kinking issue while still using the same soft silicone hose. As soon as the new parts arrive, we’ll send a set out to you straight away so you can update your incubator without any hassle.

Thanks again for the helpful feedback — it genuinely guides our improvements.

Kind regards,
The Team at Uneek Poultry.
