I have several bators I haven't used for a few years. What would y'all suggest I do to clean them up and use them?
 
I use tide soap and warm water. Then rinse with warm water. During incubation I sometimes add a couple teaspoons of bleach. I also add a teaspoon or two just before they hatch. When I have done this chicks hatch like popcorn.
I know others that just use soap and water. What works for some may not for others.
This year I used soap and water once or twice that's it. Chicks everywhere!! Very low mortality rate too.
 
I have never heard of adding bleach during incubation! It doesn't kill them? I will try soap and water as I don't have bleach here. But I may have to get a small bottle of it lol
 
Has anyone ever used Young Living Oils Thieves cleaner on their incubator? Or Dawn dish soap? I am considering both, as Thieves is supposed to be antibacterial (clove, lemon, cinnamon, eucalyptus, and rosemary.)
