incubator ??? mold

sijae May 22, 2003 11:43 AM

we got our humidity too high and the eggs we have in the incubator (2) have gotten moldy. Is it too late to save them now or should we try reducing the humidity and keep them going?

Thanks,
Sijae

I've heard the best thing to do is reduce humidity, wipe off mold gently, and then sprinkle on some gold bond foot powder. Evidently that won't hurt the egg and will keep the mold from coming back. This is just my own too bits you might want to check with someone else. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice I will try it and see how it goes - after all at this point I don't think it could get any worse.
