Scenting Eggs......?

I can't remember where I read it, but somebody was talking about rubbing pinkies on the outside of incubating eggs so that the neonates would be 'familiar with the scent' when they hatched, and be better feeders....
Did anyone else read this?
And has anyone tried it?
I've never had much problem with healthy hatchlings eating, but I thought this was very interesting.
Perhaps a little strange......but interesting. :-)
M!
