Poo Covered eggs/ Cleaned Best able too But bator stinks

[giasmom]

What kind of bators ? How much do you sell them for ? I also have made both of mine myself, mine are the hard plastic coolers. Wouldn't know what to charge if I was to sell one.

I think there was a misunderstanding in your bid. The offer was on 3619 not 3618.

As for the poop on the eggs (i know someone will disagree but) I use hydrogen peroxide to clean them. It is nontoxic & not only does it clean them it disinfects them.

There is a lot of different thoughts on cleaning eggs on here but if you are going to clean the incubator why would you put a dirty egg in it. There is a lot of bacteria in poop.

There is a feedback system here, too:

I do mine out of collers right now, the normal plastic. If they supply the stuff I sell for my time which is maybe an hour with wiring cutting holes. Its really very simple. I charge 20.00 for the electric, time, nothing major if they supply the stuff drop off here and pick up. The other one I did was for a mom of four just left an abusive husband was down on life. Her kids are great and are glad she left dad. They all seem happier. They moved into a small farm and the kids wanted to do chickens youngest was in my sons class which hatched some eggs so I talk to mom and she was interested too. She gave me the cooler I put the rest together. I got 4 homemade loaves of breads from her. I have a guy who wants to pay 50.00 for a homemade bator. It just depends on the circumstances, and how you wanna do it. But I really appreciate all the help from this site.

The misunderstanding was on the 12tt silkies. I have already gotten that squared away thanks.

I don't and won't give bad feedback to anyone if it can be worked out before hand. And then it would be last resort. Getting there on two of them.

How long do I wait to throw out the rest? I am on day 18 and had to throw out 90% of my button and cortinox (however) I'm just irritaited that the eggs themselves were so bad. Had to switch bators 6 times because of bad eggs. Nothing is hatching. More money lost on a bad investment. Go figure.

Bad as in all stinkers? If so that sucks.

 

[bigkford]

Yea it really sucked because I have a extra bator and I rotated and cleansed them with bleach and water mixture. I had the tempt rate and humidity rate just right. It was the bad eggs. Thats all I can figure. I'm just irritated that I spent the money for bad eggs.
