It's day 19. I've had three temp dips of 5 degrees in the last 2 days, for various reasons: 1. (2 hour dip) I turned the turner off, and didn't adjust the temp upwards, 2. (5 hour dip) we had a cold front come through today and outside temps dipped twenty degrees while I was at work! and 3. (3 hour dip) I removed the turner when I got home, and didn't think about the turner itself as a heat sink. Another dip.

I caused this problem. Rather than wait to have my hatcher "in hand," I loaded the bators. The hatcher shipped on 4/28....15 days ago......

DO these eggs have a chance, with all this fluctuating??

They should be just fine.....lower temps are always more welcome than a spike....removing the turner causes the temp to lower but it comes back up within a few hours ...now that your on day 19, don't open the bator and certainly do not adjust temps......sit on your hands
