How do you incubate cockatoo eggs?
Incubate the eggs in an incubator designed for Cockatoo eggs or exotic bird eggs. Ideally, your incubator should have accurate temperature control within one-tenth of one degree, a humidity control system. Maintain the temperature at 99.3 degrees F and the humidity at 40 to 50 percent. Cockatoo eggs can be artificially incubated with high success rates, assuming the proper equipment and procedures are used.
The primary reasons to artificially incubate eggs involve poor parenting by the breeder pair–birds that eat or break their eggs, abandon their eggs, or bury them in the nesting material, and birds that injure or kill newly hatched chicks. These problems can be prevented by pulling the eggs for artificial incubation.
Step 1 :
Pull the eggs for incubation by removing them from the parent bird’s nest box. When you choose to pull the eggs depends on the pair in question. Hatch rates are highest when the eggs are naturally incubated for the first two weeks, but if the parent birds eat or destroy their eggs, it is prudent to pull the eggs as soon as they are laid. The same is true if the parent birds are poor sitters or abandon their eggs since the 14-day rule only applies to eggs that are being properly taken care of by the breeder pair.
Step 2:
Place the eggs in the incubator with the air cell (larger end) slightly elevated. Place a single gauze pad under the egg’s larger end to maintain this elevation and help prevent the incubator’s vibration from damaging the eggs.
Step 3:
Incubate the eggs in an incubator designed for a parrot or exotic bird eggs. Your incubator should have accurate temperature control within one-tenth of one degree, ideally, a humidity control system. Maintain the temperature at 99.3 degrees F and the humidity at 40 to 50 percent. To maximize hatch rate, incubate larger eggs at the low end of this scale and smaller eggs at the high end.
Step 4 :
Set the incubator to rotate the eggs every one to two hours automatically. Most incubators do not perform a full rotation, so you should rotate the eggs 180 degrees by hand once a day. Step 5 Candle the eggs daily to check for abnormalities, cracks, or dead-in-shell embryos. Cracked eggs should be repaired, and dead-in-shell eggs should be discarded immediately. Badly positioned chicks may require assistance when hatching. Step 6:
Move the eggs into a hatcher when the drawdown occurs. Drawdown is a change in the air cell within the egg that signals hatching is about to begin. This should be easily visualized when candling the egg since the air cell will now extend down the side of the egg and will be elliptical rather than round.
Step 7 :
Once drawdown occurs and the eggs are moved to the hatcher, allow approximately two to three days for them to hatch. During this process, maintain the hatcher’s temperature at 99.3 degrees F and the humidity as high as possible.
