I clean mine with a mild bleach/water mix in a spray bottle. Spray down the whole inside of the bottom, and the wrack and, or, egg turner.
Just a bit of bleach/water on a paper towel to wipe down gently the inside of the top. Try not to get the fan or motor too wet. Just wipe.
I then rinse with hot hot water, the rinse again with cold cold water.
Anyone else??

Oh no, I would wait! Do you have large eggs? I have some that real large right now, and I'm not even expecting them to pip until day 20, may not even hatch until day 21 or 22..they are huge though.
What day is it? Are they reg. size..or bantams?

Its day 21 and they r standard size eggs. The humidity is up now and the temp is more stable.....

Any pips yet? I's still wait if not..could happen during the night.

Same here....tomorrow is day 21 for me. I did just hear them chirping inside the eggs...so that's a good sign.

I was worried that the first pip wasn't going to zip. Chickie One took 14 hours...

Help! I'm trapped in a cooler! Lemme out !!!

All dried off, full tummies, "Look over here please...

Yo guys.. look at the birdie!

Hey.. where did they other guys go??

Aww, pretty babies! Congrats to you!
Sometimes it takes a while before they zip..kind of scary when they do that to you!

Chirping is a good sign..maybe pipped at the bottom? Or the inside pip.
