FIELD: agriculture.
SUBSTANCE: egg injection apparatus comprises a head for egg treatment, injection devices operatively connected to the head for egg treatment with the possibility of moving by means of the head in the vertical direction and each having an end intended to contact the poultry egg. Each injection device is made with the possibility to be selectively held in the non-contact or contact position during the treatment process, so that the first subgroup of the injection devices is in the non-contact position, the second subgroup of the injection devices being simultaneously in the contact position for injecting the treating agent. The method of selective injection of poultry eggs comprises drawing in the injection devices combined with poultry eggs; fixing the first subgroup of the injection devices in the non-contact position; advancing the second subgroup of the injection devices while ensuring their interaction with the corresponding poultry eggs; fixing the second subgroup of the injection devices in the contact position and performing the injection of the treating agent into the poultry eggs interacting with the second subgroup of the injection devices.
EFFECT: providing selective injection of poultry eggs, managing the interaction with unwanted eggs.
