The instructions for my Sailnova incubator says to spray my Bobwhite eggs with water for bettter hatching. I don't put much trust in these instructions. Should I spray them and if so, when should I do it. Thanks
I don't know what the right answer is, but I spray mine with either hydrogen peroxide or diluted Listerine before incubation.
I "think" I get better results, but there's no really good way to measure if that's true or not unless I test and compare vast numbers of batches both ways.
Do not spray the eggs with water, that is false information. It will remove the protective bloom, making them more vulnerable to bacteria entering the shell.
