Heck I was glad to see how clean they were! I ordered some because they are Embens and I wanted to raise them but couldn't find eggs. I thought they looked great!
I don't have a STYRO BATOR I am using a sportsman and if the eggs are DRY there should be little risk of any disease bacterial or otherwise.
If disease were a problem then how do they do it in the wild???
Clearly FarmerKitty you haven't seen round bales in the farm yard. They are sterile from the sun, and only have issues near the bottom that hay looked great. My horses eat hay like that to the last straw. They are very healthy. There is such a thing as TOO CLEAN, when dealing with animals and children.
Hay or straw in a barn is more dirty than in the field hay because of mice and rat feces not to mention wild birds in the rafters. So field hay is cleaner. Dispite how it looks.
