hatchery
Where eggs hatch
A hatchery is a facility where eggs are incubated and hatched under controlled conditions, typically for fish, poultry, or other animals raised commercially.
Fish hatcheries stock rivers and lakes; chicken hatcheries supply farms: The salmon hatchery releases thousands of fingerlings each spring.
