Hi,
we ordered some duck hatching eggs from different farms and were very surprised about how dirty some of them are.
My best guess is, that the first farm collected them in a coop with clean shavings and the other farm gathered them from outside.
Dirt, poop, pieces of straw and the local fauna still sticking to most of the eggs.
Do I have to be overly concerned about eggs starting to rot in the incubator?
Should I try to wipe down the dirty ones carefully with a damp cloth?
What would you do?
Any experiences? Recommendations?
Thanks in advance!
