    I think that's the right thing to do. Just remind your mom not to turn off the lights to the bator or unplug anything. ~Rebecca

    You could just leave it and ask her to give you an update everyday. If the chick hatches tell her not to open the bator at all. It won't need anything to survive except warmth. The water is not accessible by the chick is it? We wouldn't want it to get in the water. ~Rebecca

    I would probably take the bator with me but put the egg in my shirt to keep it warm. Plug the bator up when you get to your dad's house. Its a long shot but I don't know what else you could do. ~Rebecca
