I have a 1 lb can that I have had over 6 years and make an effort to hatch every once in a while. It still gives me great hatches when I use it. It did have a silica type packet in it to absorb moisture, so that probably helped. The best way to find out is give it a try. Let us know what happens.

It had been opened and reseald with the plastic lid, (the 1 lb. can). Is there any chance of these still being good?
