Do you not have an issue with the “dirty” eggs? My first two bator batches grew until about day 16 and died. Was told probably a bacteria in my styrofoam bator...going to set some from my roo in the next few days. He attempted to attack me over the weekend and won’t take a chance with the kids. He’s going to rooster heaven by the end of the week. Just curious if I’ll have any success.

I am going to bleach my bator today and let it dry thoroughly. Gold listerine was recommended to spray the bator and eggs to disinfect. Let dry thoroughly. Dry hatch was also recommended.

Just looking for some recommendations.
I would skip the listerine.

No. I'm not excited at all. Why do you ask?

Baby day! We were expecting 3 litters and we have 3 litters.

First time ND Mom BURIED HER BABIES. I thought she was just making a mess in the nest box so I pulled it to clear the garbage and uncovered these

Our Chestnut x brkoen silver marten ND also has 4. They're dark and otter patterned, we''ll see if they end up otters or martens. She's given us both with the same buck. I am bummed we got 4 solids and no brokens. First time that's happened with this buck.

Last my black tort x broken black tort (with dillute) dropped 6, 5 made it. All are torts, but with no fur yet I don't know how many are brokens.

Pics soon, probably this weekend.
Blue Silver Marten x Sable point, I'm really curious to see what we get. I didn't see any other babies so I'm pretty happy with 4 live from a first time delivery.
