I love to clean my brooders with Odoban. Cleans well and smells good, not like chemicals!

100.5 fahrenheit!

Of course! I doubled mine! It is a good cold treat! I hope it helps with your extra yolks!

Thank you so much! You could make a custard out of the yolks! It could be a great thing for you to put over your fruit! https://kitchenmai.com/easy-homemade-vanilla-custard-without-custard-powder/#google_vignette Here is a link to a custard recipe I found and made! I also froze it and a couple...
