The hypothesis is that heat, moisture, and ventilation will affect the development of the chicken embryo in an incubator.

You will construct an incubator using cardboard boxes, plexiglass, hardware cloth, a porcelain socket and light bulb, a cake tin, glue, tape, newspapers, wood shavings, styrofoam, and two brooding or incubator thermometers.

You will need two cardboard boxes, one pane of plexiglass, 1/4 mesh welded hardware cloth, one porcelain socket and light bulb or one commercial heating element, a cake tin, glue, masking or duct tape, newspapers, wood shavings, or styrofoam, and two brooding or incubator thermometers.

This project teaches you how to construct an incubator and hatch eggs with the help of heat, moisture, and ventilation. It is important to note that even with all the specialized equipment, commercial hatcheries do not average more than an 80 percent hatch of all the eggs they incubate.

This science project is unique because it teaches you how to construct an incubator and hatch eggs with the help of heat, moisture, and ventilation.

Experiment variations to consider include using different types of insulation materials, such as wood shavings or styrofoam, and using different types of heating elements, such as a porcelain socket and light bulb or a commercial heating element.
