Should you wash your eggs? – Deer Run Farm
The answer is YES! While many flock owners might tell you that washing your egg removes the egg's natural protective coating called the bloom, it's actually safer to wash your eggs as it can take up to 30 minutes for the bloom to dry and become effective! Here's an effective way to wash your eggs safely.
High numbers of soiled eggs in the incubator is probably the single biggest cause of poor chick quality and first week mortality. Cross contamination between a heavily soiled egg and one that may be fairly clean can lead to lower fertility rates, early embryonic mortality and a higher percentage of rotten eggs. Removing bacteria and microbial pathogens before they have a chance to multiply and contaminate other eggs during incubation is essential to your incubation process. So wash your eggs!!
