  ABSTRACT: The experimental performance evaluation of geothermal egg incubator was conducted with the aim of improving the capacity and efficiency. The study determines the accuracy of the measuring instruments in an incubator, test control parameters (temperature and relative humidity) and evaluates the overall performance of the incubator by examining the number of hatched and unhatched eggs. The data analysis was done and the results show that the measuring instruments, tilting mechanism and ventilation fan performed well. The relative humidity showed to be in proper range while the temperature found to have fluctuations of more than 2˚C from set value and took longer time to restore which led defecting eggs. The improvement will enhance more productions and increase income to individual farmers and Government at large.
