We have the Little Giant (or is it Lil Giant) bator we bought at the feed store. We hatched our first five chicks almost a week ago. When I washed it out I used warm water and a bit of dish detergent. I then used a very small amount of diluted bleach. I rinsed well too. I didn't bang on the bator or bend it in any way. When ever we fill the troughs with water it just leaks out. It's a slow leak, but all the water is not leaking the bator dry. We didn't notice this until a day after we put our eggs in. It's styrofoam... Do you think the small amount of bleach could have done this? We can't see any cracks and/or holes and can't figure it out. Anyone have any input?? We have taken a bowl of water and put that in there since it won't hold water.
