Yes I use bleach...normal household bleach to decap and uses normal cheap vinegar to remove the bleach...same like in the video.

You can buy decapped eggs from Af Buy/Sell...some bros like Ozone does carry extra quantity as they into breeding.

Good bbs on shelf...please note that bbs eggs best kept in vegetable compartment of fridge...those you see sitting on shelf especially sitting there long time...chances quality of eggs deteriorate...try get those that are recently imported and try store eggs in the fridge. Hatching rate varies on the quality of eggs and how long it been sitting on shelf. I ever through an American friend airfreighted some direct from Salt Lake City...the hatch rate was fantastic....bought direct from Salt Lake manufacturer.
Thanks for the explanation.

Any household bleach.. no need dilute.. but how I ensure only burn the shell, and not burn the BBS too? Any catch or specific timing etc?

If I decap the BBS eggs using bleach, can I decap the whole packet/tub of eggs and keep them in fridge? or need to decap each time based on the quality I need?

PS: I am afraid I do not have the patient to decap multiple times

Aiyoh see video got tell ratio right...you pour pure bleach over eggs will burn everything and eggs cannot hatch...the idea is to burn off the egg shell...very delicate so must stick to proven method.

I usually decap a week supply and keep in the fridge...after decap, I just use kitchen towel put under the net of eggs and dry them as much as possible...after that just put whole thing in fridge.
