METHOD AND DEVICE FOR INCUBATION OF FISH EGGS Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC A01K61/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: device is a transparent vessel for incubating eggs, of cylindrical shape, tapering downwards and terminating with a neck and having upper and lower openings. The water supply system is connected to the lower opening, comprising a pipe with internal diameter of the hole, coinciding with the inner diameter of the container neck.
