I'm back, but I'll update when I get home. I was taking care of the birds.


We've been getting 50mph wind gusts, & we have a broken pine tree.

Ok.
Wow! Are all of the birds ok?

Yep they're fine. The tree is in the front yard.

What is the temp at in there now?
Also, how long had the eggs been in before the outage?

80.1°F.

Maybe about 2-2½ hours at most. Wasn't very long.

Ok.
That's pretty good then, they haven't started to develop to much yet.

Yeah.
Hopefully this incident doesn't effect them too much. These were some pricey eggs. If I have to I can order more, not this month though.

Incubator warehouse sent me a whole new lid instead of just the turner motor, which is okay. I can just swap the motors out.

Turns out trees was the cause of our power outage. Their new estimated power restoration time is 10:15pm.

I don't think they're going to have the power restored tonight. They haven't even despatched a crew to fix the power lines yet. Now I'm getting a bit worried.
