Incubator stench...

[shuizar209]

UGH!!! I cant stand it. Does anyone else hate the smell of a "just hatched" bator?

After every hatch I take mine right outside to be cleaned ASAP!

LOL... I've already mixed my bleach water, and got the scrubber next to the guest tub.. I still have eggs in mine.. hatching as I type.

yeah that smell is aweful. It is the baby poo that chickies do before they zip out.

OMG THEY SMELL!!!!!!!!!...


this is my first time incubating... and if it's gonna stink up my room, i'm gonna throw this thing in the chicken coop...


LOL...

It will smell pretty gross BUT, there is nothing like being sound asleep, then waking to the teeny tiny peeping of a chick still in the egg or newly hatched. My kids and I having woken in the middle of the night to see what is going on inside the bator. A wonderful experience!

I know exactly what you mean- I tried a dab of pine sol when cleaning ours and it helps out a bit. clorox too...

I clean mine out really good with hot water and a little dish detergent or sometimes bleach water. Then I dry it out and spray some Lysol in there and let that air dry. Takes the odor right out.

would vinegar work for the stench...? i hate working with bleach...

Baking soda! Sprinkle, wipe, rinse. Mine goes outside until I sic myself into cleaning it. Like pinesol.
