Cleaning an incubator in between hatches?

[ldrchickens]

Thanks for all the input on my question about incubating! Now what to do after incubating before starting another. How do i clean and disinfect? Bleach water solution? How strong? I did read that a foam incubator cannot be cleaned enough and after the first couple hatches becomes hazardous and causes a drastic drop in hatching! Is that true???? Thanks in advance!

Not sure. I have had more than a few hatches in mine and don't clean it much in between. I just rinse it out with some soap water and remove all of the visible junk. I have not noticed a difference in hatch rates, my first few hatches had the lowest rates because I was not very experienced.
@The Phantom you had that extremely old incubator, what did you do for cleaning?
