wow, ok good thing you ignored my opinion. So lower the humidity for the next 3 days. Do a dry run till lockdown. You can even start lockdown and go dry one more day as he won't be pipping straight away. For pipping you need to increase humidity but till then it needs to be as dry as possible n the incubator to get it to transpire more and increase the air cell. Good luck with it, sounds like temp was just a little bit too low so just a little bit higher and you'll be good. Give it 1-2 more days till lockdown as it is a bit behind.
ps: maybe i misunderstood but if the thermometer is off by 1.7 degrees you just increase the temps in the incubator. No need to stop everything and puts eggs in your shirt, I hope I misread that part.
pps: I really hope you can just turn up the temp in the incubator, if it was off by 1.7 degrees, I'd raise temps by 1 degree. It has stayed alive at 1.7 below this whole time so although most certainly too low you might end up overcompensating by going too high so just go up 1 degree and you'll be in good range.
