Hot water bottles from water heater might help.

Did you say you had well.

I don't have water. No power = no water. My well doesn't run with out electricity.

How did you check for it?

Without being there and knowing what you have this is hard,



Flip the breakers from one side of the box, However, one side of the box is every other break on both sides...

in most boxes. If it does not \change things that's what it is. You are going to need someone with some knowledge to fix this. If it is outside the power company.

I think you best call for help.

I would hate to see your kids lose you, This is nothing to mess around with, if this is what it is.

Motors will burn out, Fridges, pump. AC etc.... and you can kill yourself touching the wrong thing in there.

Yep just realized your on a well. There is usually a water hose bib on the water heater that will let water out but I hesitate to mention it because it seldom turns back off once it's used. Constantly dripping after that.

How many eggs?

Everything is off, except my wifi router/laptop and cell phone.

I had to cover my incubator with a towel, trying to save it.

They can get cold, it might slow them, it won't kill them if the time is reasonable.

X a million. Call utilities if neighbors haven't, best way to get info. Our utilities has a program that relays stuff that's happening with the power to our phone.
