help! MOLD IN HOME MADE BATOR

[Littlecimarron18]

ok so i have been good and havent opened the bator,
but yesterday when i came home i decided to open it and i found some mold. = (
i guess while i was away my mom decided it would be best if the vents were closed.
soooooo are my chicks alright?
they r supposed to hatch on saturday.





what do u all think?

day 19 I am guessing...well day 20 today lol. Congrats on the babies. I dont know if mold "from the water and humidity I am guess) would kill it. The mold would have to be on the egg in order to kill it. I never had mold so my answer is just a opinion

." Keep us updated on the babies

mold can be VERY bad...get the chicks out of that bator and into a brooder as soon as possible.

If there is mold I would pull the chicks as soon as possible and put in brooder. Mold can be deadly... there are many different types of bacteria.
