Foot powder (anti-fungal).
I have a clutch of nigritis cooking right now (and are due to hatch any day). Mold started growing on the top egg, of a total of 8 in the clutch, about 4-6 weeks ago. I dusted the rest of the clutch and stopped the mold in it's tracks. The remaining 7 are pristine...however the one that started it all has died and it's fairly obvious.
Now, on the topic of good eggs gone bad...I think most on here would agree to not be in too much of a hurry to start chuckin' eggs in the trash at the first sign something may be wrong with them. You'd be surprised at some of the crappy looking eggs some babies have crawled out of. This was a topic on here not too long ago and if my memory serves me correctly, someone actually did throw some eggs away, in a garbage can, only to later on find some babies inside that had hatched.
