(Added Bookseller to infobox and text sources + 1.6 history. Added 1.6.4 bugfix. Reworded section on indoor/outdoor slimes, since the free incubator can be moved in 1.6. Noted that slimes can be hatched anywhere indoors or outdoors and there's only a limit in the Hutch. As of 1.6.4, slime incubators only hatch slimes overnight - see field "OnlyCompleteOvernight" in Machines.xnb.)

The Slime Incubator is a piece of equipment used to hatch Slime Eggs into actual Slimes. The crafting recipe is unlocked after reaching Combat Level 8. One Slime Incubator comes with each Slime Hutch, and it can be moved. The Bookseller may trade 1 Slime Incubator for 2 Monster Compendiums each, provided the player has already earned the power from that book.

Slime Eggs take Time Icon.png 4,000m (2d 13h 20m) to incubate.[1] The Coopmaster Profession cuts this time in half, but Fairy Dust does not work on Slime Incubators. If an incubator finishes processing during the day, then a Slime will hatch the next morning.[2]

Since the Slime Incubator can be placed anywhere, Slimes can be hatched in any indoor or outdoor location. The Slime Hutch has a limit of 20 Slimes, but there is no limit in other areas. If the Slime Hutch is at capacity, a Slime will not hatch until space is freed up by killing an existing Slime in the building.
