3 days from due date, incubator shut off last night!

[Mollyy]

Hi, I am in need of some advise! My ducks are due this Thurs, and when I got up this morning the incubator was off. I turned it back on, the eggs felt room temp!! Is there any chance my babies survived> I have no idea how long the incubator was off!!

Have you tried candling them?

They will be fine. They are pretty tough.

No, I haven't candeled them yet..I'm really scared to check them.. I really hope they are ok we checked them the other night and could see lots of movement in the eggs. (I have 3) I think I'll check them again tonight and just give them some time to settle.
Thank you so much for responding so quickly! I will keep you posted!

UPDATE***** I candeled my eggs last night and saw tons of movement!!

I couldn't be happier! They are set to hatch this Thursday.. Keeping my fingers crossed!!!
