[gervais22]

Washing is a NO, NO! It will damage the egg.

No water. If cleaning is needed, use fine grit sandpaper and lightly brush the dirt off. Little amounts of dirt will not hurt the eggs.

I washed all of my eggs before incubating...with warm water,no soaps at all.... I had no problems with my hatches. Although, I only did this to my really dirty eggs, if they had only a bit of dirt on them, I left them. If they are really dirty and you don't wash them, would those eggs be at a higher risk for bacteria and kill the embryo?

NO do not wash the eggs!

Washing the eggs will do no good, trust me! But if nothing else will do, wash them after the hatch they will need it...
