How to Improve Your Hatch Rate

Today we are setting some eggs in our incubator to hatch. I was reading on line to see if there was anything I could do to improve the hatch rate. I found if you take water and delute 2-3% hydrogen peroxide into it you can sterilize your eggs and increase your hatch rate. It seams simple enough so lets give it a try and see what happens.. We will be candling the eggs in 10 days. stay tuned to see the results!!

I use distilled water for all of my dilutions. It gets rid of variables that can happen with tap or well water.

We want to see the result. 6 years since then 😂

Interesting. I have an incubator, but haven’t used it yet...

[coffeemaninsanity]

The 3% refers to peroxide that is already 3% not you diluting it more

[AkomKeseTV]

You don’t have to dilute. Just spray from a bottle of Peroxide and white clean place back into the incubator

Use original yellow Listerine mixed. 50/50 with water and lightly spritz the eggs as soon as you bring them in from the hen house to kill all bacteria

so i see someone said to use the peroxide straight from bottle and you said thanks for correction, so is the way you did it in the video wrong?
you shouldn't have diluted it?
what strength was your bought peroxide ?.

Hello. If you had ONLY two choices of 99 degrees Fahrenheit OR 100 degrees Fahrenheit on your forced air incubator which would you choose for Mandarin duck eggs?

You don’t need to dilute the hydrogen peroxide.

[tristenberry]

isn't the solution of H2O2 in the brown bottle already a 3% solution?

I used hydrogen peroxide mixed with water for quail egg. I am scared because there was white fizz forming in egg shell like some kind of reaction. Will it harm the egg?

[MyronTheHen]

Just put the peroxide into the spray bottle and make sure to wash out the peroxide afterwards because it can degrade the plastic over time.

didint it said 9/12 grams of solution most of the weight was from the cup

Hi I am from south Africa, I work a shitty job and I want to start chicken farming, I literally do not have capital to do this but I want to do it anyway, what would you suggest for extremely measures to make a living out chicken farming starting by using incubator?

Okay. . .someone explain to this dummy, if I don't have a fancy scale. . .How much much hydrogen peroxide are we suppose to use per oz. of water ??? I am a dummy. Please explain
