After a very disappointing hatch 2 years ago I have finally got the itch and nerve to try again

It really is hard to lose a whole incubator full of chicks :( and not know what went wrong. Upon setting up for this hatch I discovered that my main thermometer that I trusted with my life had failed me.

So,two new thermometers,fingers crossed,I'm being very cautious but hopeful.

I always question what day is day 18,where I set them last night and it won't be a full day until 8pm tonight,do I start at today?

Well day two and it wasn't good! Automatic egg turner quit on me!IPretty sure it was at least for 12 hours before I clued in.So first thing this morning my hubby took the back off the incubator to see what was wrong,it can't be fixed now. So the eggs were out of the incubator for a good 30 minutes! All those screws and then getting the trays level because it was stuck at a tilt.So now I'm turning the eggs by hand

So I hope that this hatch isn't doomed!! Anybody have eggs cool down and still hatch?
