You can incubate refrigerated eggs. Those that are NPIP certified are required to wash their eggs before incubation. Google can find the washing instructions for you.

I have some pullet eggs I'd love to throw in there!!!! I usually do wash mine before incubation but I don't do it until the day I set them.

@duluthralphie knows the NPIP egg washing techniques pretty well. I bet he could pipe in here with that info. I only wash my eggs before incubating if it looks like the girls had a soccer tournament in the mud with them first lol

1 ounce of bleach in 1 gallon of water.

120 degree water..

dunk the eggs.. clean them.. rinse them..

then dunk in a second bleach and let dry..

The internal temp of the egg is safe until it reaches 117f.. so don’t float the eggs.. just dunk and clean..

138 chicken eggs set tonight. Any pullets that are produced from this batch will be blue egg layers.

I have 30 chicken eggs (mixed flock) to check and go to lockdown this Fri. Set 35 yesterday. Waiting for turkeys and Ayam Cemani to start laying. Should be seeing those very soon.
