washed eggs(before I knew I shouldn't)

[perrym1962]

They will be fine. I to have washed excessively dirty eggs by dipping them in warm water and gently rubbing off the soiled areas. Did not hurt my hatch rates at all...

I've read if you dont clean them they can start to grow bateria and harbor diseases w/ the warm moist enviorment. (Makes sense to me) I've only tried to hatch out chicks once (now on my 2nd time) and had 6 out of 8 eggs hatch w/ no problems.

I didnt even know to adjust the humidity. What does that do exactly?
