Day 20 and after adding water I leaned the incubator on its side to disperse the water and the eggs rolled..are they done for?

Such an bone headed move. The water was touching the eggs in the middle ring of my incuview, so I decided to lean the incubator so it would flow to the other rings and the eggs rolled. Do you think some will make it?

They should be fine if they just got a bit wet. Just gently pat the eggs dry and re-set the eggs up the same orientation as they were before.

A splash with a little water won't damage the chicks inside, and a broody hen wouldn't stop fussing over eggs, so a little movement is fine too.

Ok, I don’t totally remember the orientation of each egg. Should I guess or let them be?
