incubators in stable only?
Do incubators only allow the lullaby bonus, or is there some other bonus involved?

I have two fully-powered incubators just outside my stable. The base incubation rate (3%) is the same as an egg just sitting inside the stable. I would have thought the base incubation rate would be higher with an incubator, since the lullaby seems a separate action.

Need a powered incubator to do the lullaby. Once lullaby is done, no need to keep the incubator powered for the rest of the cycle. Clocks and a power shutoff are good ways to save power. Have each of my incubators set to 7% duration and the start time for each staggered during the work times of the rancher(s). There is a 2% overlap from one incubator to the next so they can go from one to the next if available. Be sure to set the incubators priority to something high.

The incubator by itself does nothing to speed up hatching.
