Abstract: Module for operational control of the guided advance/withdrawal device of the needle added to the smart substance injection device on board equipment for inoculating substances inside a fertile egg and smart method for injection inside a fertile egg, wherein the “inoculation of substances” inside a fertile egg, be this into the embryo, in the case of vaccines, and even into the amniotic fluid, in the case of a nutrient or nutritional vaccine complex, allows the injection needle (11) to be brought close at a controlled speed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hatcher basket for holding newly hatched birds in an incubator. The basket has: —a pair of side walls on horizontally opposite sides having a plurality of horizontally-extending openings through them; —a horizontally-extending trough which is attached to the exterior of each side wall and which can contain feed for the newly hatched birds; —the bottom of each opening in each side wall being located at the same distance above the bottom of the side wall; —the top of each trough being located at this same distance above the bottom of its side wall; and —the size of each opening being significantly larger than the head of the newly hatched birds but significantly smaller than the thorax of the newly hatched birds.

Abstract: A radial fan for an incubator for poultry eggs and newly hatched poultry. The fan has a longitudinally-elongated, hub and a plurality of self-supporting, radially-extending, fan blades on the hub. Each blade is laterally deformable, so that it is deformed by air pressure in a counter-clockwise direction when the hub is rotated in a clockwise direction and is deformed by air pressure in a clockwise direction when the hub is rotated in a counter-clockwise direction.

Abstract: Method for providing a bird, reptile or mammal, for its consumption, with a source of water that does not dry out under prolonged heating conditions by providing an exogenous deep eutectic solvent of water and two or more primary metabolites. In particular, a method for strengthening newly hatched birds during their incubation by providing the birds, for their consumption during their incubation, with the exogenous deep eutectic solvent.

The basket has: - a pair of side walls on horizontally opposite sides having a plurality of horizontally-extending openings through them; - a horizontally-extending trough which is attached to the exterior of each side wall and which can contain feed for the newly hatched birds; - the bottom of each opening in each side wall being located at the same distance above the bottom of the side wall; - the top of each trough being located at this same distance above the bottom of its side wall; and - the size of each opening being significantly larger than the head of the newly hatched birds but significantly smaller than the thorax of the newly hatched birds.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for providing food and water for consumption and digestion by: newly hatched birds or newly hatched reptiles undergoing incubation; and/or baby birds and baby reptiles being transported after incubation. The birds or reptiles are fed edible insects and/or edible parts of insects during their incubation or transport.

Abstract: An egg-holding tray for incubation intended to accommodate eggs has rectangular shape with rounded corners bordered by parallel walls. A lower part of these walls configures a protruding rectangular border. The internal area of the tray comprises a set of laterally juxtaposed aureoles with the same structure that fill the entire area of the tray. Each individual aureole includes a lower concentric ring beneath an upper ring. The lower ring has a circular shape configured to have four equidistant orthogonal supports located on the internal face which each support has a vertical triangular shape with a rounded upper end and a concave surface that correlates to the inside circumference of the lower ring. The tray accommodates eggs under the force exerted by the weight of each of the eggs prevent the egg from moving around in the aureole.
