Title: incubating cracked eggs?
Post by: judge8604 on July 12, 2010, 06:42:33 PM

Just out of curiosity I have a couple BW eggs that have small hairline fractures in them due to shipping. I whipped the fractures down with Lysol to kill any germs that may try to enter the egg during incubation. Have any of you had any experience with trying to do such a thing? what were your results?

As long as the membrain is not damaged you should be ok. Just cover the crack with some nail polish or super glue.
