HELP?! are they still alive.

[KWAK]

My incubator temp spiked

up tp 113 degrees F. during the night. they have been in their for a little over a week. any chance they lived?

Ouch, that's high! Was it brief or for a while? Chances are it will have taken the level of heat inside the egg too high, although takes longer for inside of egg to reach that temperature than the rest of the incubator. If the inside of the egg got that high, you will have cooked the embryo.

Sorry the news isn't great! But please check the eggs first, candle them to check for movement.

maybe an hour or two?

They may hatch early, If they're still alive. Keep watch on them

and candle them when you get a chance to see if theres any moving/growing ect.

That happened to me with duck eggs and I lost them. You can wait the 21 days, but I wouldn't count on them hatching:/

I was going to just throw them out but when i got one i accidentally dropped it and looked at it... the heart/chick was moving!!!
