day 2 and incubator cord came loose lost power

Just checked thim. Looks like a have a couple iffy ones but other than that everything looks fine. Did yours loose power during incubation. We will see how they hatch out.
 
Oh yeah I was off a good 6 hours or more ao expect the hatch may be off by a day but so far I am at what I expect for shipped silkies and seramas. 50%-70% seems to be pretty decent from shipped eggs of these breeds for me.
 
Going into lockdown tomorrow but I stopped turning and transferred to the other incubator I am using for hatching. 17 out of 24 batch one of silkies and 7 out of 12 seramas and actually 10 out of 12 of the other batch of silkies..however since these are shipped eggs I find that not all hatch well. but putting them.in egg cartons with bottoms cut out. We will see!
 
well have 3 pipped this evening of the silkies. Day 21 would be tomorrow afternoon but I moved to Friday with the power outtage. Looks like I am on schedule. We will see how they hatch!
 
6 silkies hatched. 2 have died in shell..not sure why and have a couple more pipped. No seramas yet...Trying the egg carton method. Not sure if it makes a difference or not.
 
1 serama hatched (of 8 that went into lockdown) and 8 silkies from one set (15 had gone into lockdown) I have a set of 10 for tomorrow with 1 already hatched a couple days younger tham the others. May or may not have affected hatch with low temps. They were shipped silkies which I seem to have trouble hatching anyways. Helped 2 silkies that got stuck. Their.shell came off in large chucks so they started to stick. I usually get less than 1/2 hatching. Other breeds do just fine.Have not figured out why I have more trouble with shipped silkie eggs. Many had iffy air cells so that may have been the issues and not the incubator.
 
final hatch was 12. Thee were about 30 decent eggs going in. But shipped snd silkies and seramas I have issues with shipped eggs. They seem to have a hard time. I had 1 serama hatch.
