So I started out my operation on a little giant still air and fell in love. I know many people don't like using styrofoam or still air incubators but it's what has worked for me, and I can do an abundance of eggs in a cheap setup. I got my first one the summer of 2018. Since then I've bought two more(of a different brand, and circulated air, but I can't remember what brand exactly and I don't have the patience to go look). Anyway, when I bought the two new ones I decided that for now those would be my turning incubators and my original one would be my lockdown/hatching one. But the thing I'm running into is that my hatching incubator is starting to smell after 2.5 years of good use... It's done amazing and hasn't failed me yet, but should I think of getting rid of it? I've bleached it too many times to remember(at least 10) and soaked it in hot water(obviously only the bottom), I sprayed it with air freshener... nothing seems to work to get the smell to go away. It gets better the longer that the bator's on but it's still not good. So, do you think it's time to say goodbye to the old girl? Do you have any ideas for what I could do to get rid of the smell or salvage some/all of the bator?
Thanks,
Madie.
