Cuticle procedure for safe removal Washing eggs with 2500 ppm sodium hypochlorite solution at 104 degrees F for 5 minutes.
how much is 2500 ppm and how on earth do I make this solution!!!!
I even used this link and dont get it!!

Not all bleach is created equal.....

First you have to read the label to find the % Sodium Hypochlorite (SH) ...... I just read up on "Clorox" brand products.... They appear to make several concentrations ranging from 2.75% to possibly 8% Sodium Hypochlorite.....

Since we are looking for a 2500 Ppm final concentration of SH, we need to figure the Ppm in the store bought container...

Start with the 6% bleach solution most of us use in cleaning etc.....

6% is 0.06 x 1,000,000 (one million) = 60,000 parts of SH in one million.... or 60,000 PPM SH in "Clorox" ...

To calculate the 2,500 Ppm solution ....

60,000 Ppm / (unknown) = 2,500 Ppm or... (unknown) = 2,500 Ppm / 60,000 Ppm ... UNKNOWN = 24 ......

So we have to dilute our original 6% "Clorox" ... 24 times to get 2,500 Ppm final solution

Since there are 16 fluid ounces in a pint... lets use 1 1/2 pints = 24 ounces...

Add one ounce of "Clorox" to that 1 1/2 pint (24 ounces) to get to our 2500 Ppm Sodium Hypochlorite Sanitizing Solution

This type of stuff can be confusing at best.... I hope this helps..... Dave

It all depends on what your air cells look like, I have no issue having 70 in after I see pips, and then after hatching starts its in the upper 80-90s it does in fact get high depending on amount of chicks hatching, but if my air cells tend to be a tad small I dont go high I do 62-65 as I did with those two nasty hatches this winter with weight loss issues.
