Raina Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Hi all, My 2nd Hand Incubator arrived today & i have a couple of questions. It's been used 8 times in 12 months,and by the looks of it, it's never been cleaned out,what's the best thing to use to clean it out? It has an automatic turner ( ) do i put the eggs in it pointy end down or pointy end up? And There's a Water chamber at the bottom with wire over the top,how do i refill it with the turner connected and what do i do with the wire when it's time for the chicks to hatch? do i just put some paper towel over the top? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 You cna buy proper incubator disinfectant, which is probably a good idea Our (chicken) eggs were on their sides, but the quail eggs were in a tray and pointy end up. Get a small funnel to fill up the water, or you could get a pipe coming up out of the tray(with a funnel on the end). I put non-slip mat down in the bottom of the incy, you can get it from the £ shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
