We’ve been collecting eggs
for this year’s first round of incubation.
It’s important to choose
clean eggs, but don’t wash them clean. This would damage the invisible
bloom that surrounds the shell.
One thing we learned the hard
way was egg
storage for incubation. When storing for more than 4 days remember
to rotate each egg once a day with the large end up. This helps to
prevent the embryo from sticking to the shell.
