what happens when egg explodes in incubator
Bacteria from a dirty egg grows inside, turning the contents into a foul liquid, killing any embryo present. Gasses build up and generate pressure that may cause the egg to ooze or explode. I rescued this egg from one of my fairweather broody hens, who had abandoned her nest after two weeks of sitting. The egg was no longer warm when I found it, which didnât give me much hope for the embryoâs viability, but I placed it in my incubator hoping for the best a few days ago.
