RE: To keep eggs from fungusing

Hi John,

Tried it, didn't like it much. Acriflavine worked better.

Hello Killinutz,

   As pertains to water incubation.

   Doesn't anyone else use methl-blue.
   Fungus is a secondary infection on a dead egg.
   It's either not fertilized or killed by bacteria, then fungus takes hold.

   Methl-blue will control the bacteria and there's no mistake which
containers it's being used in.
   Depending on the quality of the hatching water, many eggs don't need any
medications.

   Peat in the water can also hold back the bacteria.
