Ok it's not my week again. Got up just a bit ago and realised the power has been off for 6 hours over night. Raced out to the brooder to have a look as temps over night were close to zero. Out of the 4 wellies that hatched yesterday. One has died and two are not looking good at all. 1 is looking fine so far. Darn it. I hope the other 2 are able to hang on . Nothing else is happening in the incubator. I am not holding out much hope for them now with the power out that long.. Poor wellie babies.

Oh no Satay, that really sucks. What terrible timing and atrocious bad luck.

Thanks Kat and mog. Looks like unfortunately I may loose the whole 4. The one I thought was going ok is now not looking good at all.

Satay, when that happened to a small group of my own chicks, I popped them back into the incubator and 3/5 got better. Good luck, I hope those left pull through

Omg bloody yawning!!!...Little buggar purposely came to the door and did it...so I would worry.... Ok I overreacted , lesson learnt... Lol

Satay. Stick a hot water bottle in the brooder opposite side to the lamp just before going to bed so they have another non electric source of heat. It's a good back up three winter unless you have Ash's battery backed systems !

Thanks colourful I may try that.
I have put the three back in the incubator for a while. Will see if that can pull them through. Thanks all for your advice
