Incubation- Single and multi stage systems
Single Stage Incubation Systems Versus Multi Stage Incubation Systems
Published: November 9, 2010
Summary
Multi stage and single stage incubation systems use similar equipment but are operated quite differently except that they both turn the embryos much the same. Multi-stage incubation systems must provide for the average needs of all embryos within the incubator, thus it may not meet the specific needs of the youngest and oldest embryos at the same time in the incubator.

An excellent comparison between single stage and multi stage incubation. It is apparent from the article that single stage incubation is more advantageous but if flock size is small then a breeding company cannot adopt single stage incubators.
But when a PS flock size is big enough then there is no point using multi stage incubators.

Dr. Wineland discusses an important advantage of the single stage incubation process - the economic advantage! We are receiving many customer reports confirming increased viability, increased weigh gains, and (maybe subsequently) improved feed efficiency.
An area which we feel has been erroneously commented is that single stage incubation is a more expensive process - mostly due to an increased electric charge. Again we are learning that there is in fact less electric usage with the single stage incubation process.
In well insulated cabinets with no air leaks,by closing the cabinet for the first days of incubation, there is little call for additional heat once the cabinet has reached temperature.
Single stage incubation is a real aid in reducing production costs.
