A low-cost handmade incubation chamber was developed and successfully used for hatching poultry eggs at Krishi Vigyan Kendra Kotwa, Azamgarh-I. The unit, prepared using a thermocol box fitted with a bulb, fan and automatic temperature control system, maintained suitable conditions for incubation with minimal electricity consumption (1?2 units per day). A total of 40 eggs (20 Kadaknath and 20 Rhode Island Red) were incubated, resulting in more than 80?90 per cent hatchability. The chicks obtained were healthy and active, indicating the effectiveness of the system. This simple and affordable technology can be easily adopted by farmers for small-scale chick production, reducing dependency on hatcheries and improving rural livelihoods.
