  • Egg Candling Lamp | Power Lux Egg Candling Lamp | Power Lux

    Egg Candling Lamp | Power Lux

    3 reviews

    The light power of this candler is huge!  With the very latest Super Bright LED lamp technology (NO Heat Output) + magnifying lens. Designed especially for hard to candle eggs but equally suitable for general day to day use in candling eggs. The light power of this candler is huge! The light source is a high powered LED, which, in combination with a special magnifying lens, produces a huge amount of light output. The use of a LED is a very durable way of candling with incredibly long life and low heat output, therefore not damaging to developing embryos. This candler comes with two rubber caps. One is used in combination with small eggs such as quail and the other one for use in combination with larger eggs. The caps are easily interchangeable. The rubber of the caps is flexible and therefore it ensures no light leakage during candling as it adapts to the shape of the egg. This way the candling image is much clearer. The "Powerlux" candler works with the supplied adapter complete with NZ Plug. This adapter is provided with a 2.5 m cord. Warning: please do NOT look into the lens as this causes a sight loss for a short period of time.

    Ovaview High Intensity Candling Lamp | Brinsea

    1 review

    This is a brilliant candling lamp! Lights up the whole egg showing the spidery veins in a fertile egg from as early as day 4. The OvaView High Intensity is similar to the OvaView but with a much higher light output from a higher spec LED. The greater power makes the inspection of darker and mottled egg shells easier. Supplied with both the normal flexible black ring to seal against the eggshell plus a smaller version for smaller eggs.The larger power drain means that rechargeable AA batteries are needed. We use camera batteries!

    Hygrometer | Bi-Metal | TFA Germany

    4 reviews

    Essential incubation tool. This handy little device will come in very handy to double-check your humidity is where it should be! Precision Hygrometers, bi-metal type available in 45mm and 70mm - made by TFA Germany. These hygrometers have a bimetallic mechanism and it's possible to calibrate it completely. You can use it as a rough indication of relative humidity in incubators and Intensive care brooders. The relative humidity is indicated as a percentage from 0-100. The humidity in an incubator required depends on the kind of eggs and the extent to which the shell is porous. An egg should lose approx 11% to 13% of its weight during incubation. By calculating how much weight the egg should lose throughout incubation, you can determine whether you should adjust the humidity in the incubator. You can use this hygrometer as an indicator and then by weighing the eggs regularly. This combination is the best method to determine the humidity very accurately. These are one of the best quality hygrometers available, made by TFA in Germany. The smaller gold one is the 45mm and the blue one is the 70mm hygrometer. When it comes to incubation there are 4 key things to remember: Temperature, Humidity, Turning and Ventilation. Make sure you get all 4 right!

    Brinsea EcoGlow Safety 600 Chick Brooder | Heat Plate

    18 reviews

    Keeps chicks warm. Safe and easy to use. A brilliant little brooder. The NEW Brinsea EcoGlow Safety 600 Chick Brooder is an efficient and safe way of keeping newly hatched poultry, game and waterfowl warm.  Suitable for max ± 15-20 day old chicks. The EcoGlow Safety 600 is ideal for keeping newly hatched poultry, game and waterfowl warm for the crucial first days and weeks following. The low voltage heater panel warms the chicks directly by contact. The radiant heat is far more economical than a conventional infrared lamp, using about 5% of the electricity of a 250 watt suspended lamp, which is important when heating for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Contact with the EcoGlow Safety 600 is a more natural way of raising chicks than a heat lamp. It avoids the stress of being under light both day and night and the chicks get used to the natural light changes of night and day which improves weight gain and feather growth.  The metal heater plate of the EcoGlow Safety 600 improves heat radiation and evenness of temperature under the brooder as metal is a much better conductor of heat. The lower contact temperature and the easy height adjustment means that chicks can be 'contact brooded' (like the mother hen) for maximum comfort and the lowest wasted energy. The flared 'skirt' around the heater retains more heat, improving efficiency and reducing energy use. The EcoGlow Safety 600 has easy height adjustment for a wide range of chick sizes and its tough plastic and metal construction makes it durable and easy to clean. Maximum power consumption: 12 watts (240v to 12v NZ mains adaptor is supplied) Water-tight (IPX7 Safety Standard) construction and low voltage operation are designed to comply with stringent electrical safety standards. Supplied with a 240v NZ mains adaptor incorporating a 3-metre lead, simply plug in and go - no extra accessories, plugs or cords required. FREE 3-year guarantee when registered online. Dimensions:  291mm x 208mm x 61mm (yellow panel only) Not including legs. PLEASE NOTE: This product is for indoor use only and the room temperature should not drop below 10° C (50° F). The EcoGlow should be located in an area free from draughts and chicks should be provided with plenty of bedding.

    Our recommended choice if looking for a good quality heat lamp for rearing quail, pheasant and chicks. Providing your newly hatched chicks with the right heat can make all the difference.This is the best set-up you can provide your newly hatched chicks/pheasants/ducklings. The quality ceramic heat bulb emits ONLY heat (no light) so your chicks will have the warmth they need without light 24/7. This is a more natural way to raise chicks as the chicks will get a good night's sleep and a rested gut rather than feeding and being active 24/7. We have raised chicks using this heat source for 20 years very successfully. Works particularly well with pheasants, guinea fowl, quail that seem to crave the heat more than chicken chicks!The package comes with all the necessary components and instructions to assemble.We also sell the heat emitter bulbs separately, as always good to have a spare at hand.  Each package includes the following: quality European brand ceramic lamp holder, NZ plug, cord and switch (Trixie) quality New Zealand-made reflector quality European ceramic heat emitter (Elstein) information sheet on raising day-old chicks Optional Hanging Chain with Snap HookGalvanised hanging chain and snap hook are essentially for secure hanging of your heat source.

Providing your newly hatched chicks with the right heat can make all the difference.This is the best set-up you can provide your newly hatched chicks/pheasants/ducklings. The quality ceramic heat bulb emits ONLY heat (no light) so your chicks will have the warmth they need without light 24/7.

We have raised chicks using this heat source for 20 years very successfully. Works particularly well with pheasants, guinea fowl, quail that seem to crave the heat more than chicken chicks!The package comes with all the necessary components and instructions to assemble.We also sell the heat emitter bulbs separately, as always good to have a spare at hand.  Each package includes the following: quality European brand ceramic lamp holder, NZ plug, cord and switch (Trixie) quality New Zealand-made reflector quality European ceramic heat emitter (Elstein) information sheet on raising day-old chicks Optional Hanging Chain with Snap HookGalvanised hanging chain and snap hook are essentially for secure hanging of your heat source.

  • Ceramic Heat Emitter 75W Trixie Ceramic Heat Emitter 75W

    Ceramic Heat Emitter 75W | Trixie

    An excellent source of heat for newly hatched chicks. Unlike other light bulbs, ceramic heat emitters generate only ceramic radiant heat - not light. This not only saves you energy but also prevents keeping your animals awake at night, simulating a natural cycle and promoting greater health, growth and vitality. Because no energy is wasted as light, they are much warmer than a standard 100W light globe and give off intense radiant heat very quickly - perfect for raising your young chicks, pheasant and ducklings. Ceramic heat emitters also last much longer than conventional lighting bulbs which helps offset the upfront costs. They have a very long life span of up to 10 000 hours if used correctly. They are suitable as a constant heat source for both poultry and in terrariums. Protect against water splashes and knocks. IMPORTANT: Use only in ceramic bulb holders. Here at Appletons we have used the Trixie Ceramic 75W Emitters in our chick brooders for nearly 15 years. Perfect size for doing a small number of chicks - especially inside. Please check all your orders on receipt. We have 7 days to lodge a claim with the courier. This includes heat emitters (these are all tested and checked to be functioning on dispatch). If we are not notified within 7 days, unfortunately, we cannot address any damage incurred, and this will be at your expense.

  • 250 Watt Infrared Lamps | Glass Bulbs

    250 Watt Infrared Lamps | Glass Bulbs

    1 review

    Glass Infrared Bulbs. Interheat. Twin Pack.  Providing your newly hatched chicks with the right heat can make all the difference. If the preferred option for brooding chicks is a hanging lamp, then the heat emitters and infra-red lamps are a good choice.It is well known that prolonged light can disrupt growth rates and damage eyes of developing chicks as well as causing restlessness which can also lead to pecking issues in chicks. If your preferred option is to have some light available, we now stock high quality 250 watts tempered (Hardened) glass Infra-Red lamps. Infra-red will still emit a gentle red glow which is proven to be less damaging to eyes than prolonged exposure to white light. (These are commonly seen in restaurants keeping food warm) This will also reduce the risks associated with restlessness still allowing growing chicks to rest without the interruption of bright light.Note: These heat lamps produce an intense heat, therefore it is important a good quality ceramic lamp holder is used at all times. Suitable to use in the heavy-duty heat lamp set or in the ceramic bulb holders. For those that prefer no light (and no glass), we recommend the ceramic heat emitters. These do a fantastic job of radiating heat and giving the chicks the most natural way of growing. We have found chicks raised under radiant heat grow well, happy and fast.

    NZ Made Heat Lamp Reflector 27cm or 37cm | Appletons

    Bounce the heat down! Support NZ-made. If using a heat-emitting bulb then a good reflector is essential. Using a reflector will trap the warmth and reflect it downwards making it much crosier for the chicks beneath it. The aluminum reflector offers a sense of protection for the chicks and will reduce unnecessary heat loss. We do not recommend using a heat emitter in a lamp holder without a reflector as the heat will all rise  - remember hot air rises! We have two sizes available. Both reflectors fit onto the ceramic bulb holder we have available for sale. Reflectors are NZ-made. Our reflectors are made here in NZ - we support New Zealand made 😊
