Egg Incubation API
Egg-incubation maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the hatch timeline, conditions and brooder numbers a hatchery or backyard chicken-keeper raises a clutch by. The hatch endpoint turns the set day (day 0) into the schedule by species: it knows the incubation period — chicken 21 days, duck 28, quail 17, goose 30, turkey 28, Muscovy 35 and more — and gives the lockdown day, about three days before hatch, when you stop turning the eggs, raise the humidity and leave the lid shut; pass a custom incubation_days for anything else. The conditions endpoint gives the targets: a forced-air incubator at 99.5 °F (still-air a degree or two higher at the top of the eggs), with humidity around 45–55 % through incubation and 65–75 % at lockdown so the membrane stays soft. The brooder endpoint schedules the chicks after they hatch — 95 °F under the lamp in week one, dropping 5 °F a week until they reach room temperature around 70 °F and are feathered enough to leave it. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for poultry, hatchery, homesteading and farm app developers, incubation-timer and brooder tools, and 4-H / education software. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Guidance — candle the eggs and watch the chicks. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints.
