Hi all, my question is... I have eggs in the incubator and my electricity went off yesterday for 1 to 2 hours , when it came back on the temp was 83 . Do you think the eggs are still good ??
 
My guess is yes. I had an incubator go haywire on me with temps fluctuating from 95 to 106. 2 days went by before I could get them in a better bator and I have 17 of 27 still looking good 2 weeks later. High temps are way worse than low temps and thats prob what got mine so you should be fine.
 
I agree your eggs will be fine. Look at it like the hen getting off the nest to feed and drink in nature. My incubator has a cool down option that replicates the hen leaving the nest each day. I set it to go off for an hour each day. The heating element turns off all together so it cools right down.

Good luck with your hatch :D
