Leghorn
Reviewed by Chicken Goddess

Thunderstorm came through today and my power went out at 7:06pm. I had to take my incubator and eggs to my parent's house. Plugged it in at 8:15pm. The temperature in the incubator went down to 93 F. Are my eggs ok?

Just got the power back on at 2:05 am and here I am at 2:12.
