Did they warm back up in between the two times it went out? Eggs can stand

about half an hour before starting to cool off. I think they still have a chance.

Don't loose hope! Thats the last thing you wanna do!

There are posts saying eggs went hours without heat and still hatched. I would not worry about 90 degrees. Cooler temp can cause delayed hatches though I don't think yours would be altered much.
 
I once did a whole hatch at a hare over 90* F they should be fine...

(anecdotal -93-all the way through, 70% hatch rate, 1-4 day old eggs, mixed breeds- the silkie crosses did the worst the RIR crosses did the best)
 
wow i hope so,

where do i post a topic with a pic of a hen that i was giving , i really dont know what kind od hen she is she is shinny black with a beatiful tail feathers and has no feathers on her neck altho she has a beautiful bow in front of his neck and she has a nice crest in a chape of a bowl hehhe.
 
Don't be shocked if they take a little longer to hatch. Low temps slow down developement. I bet they will be just fine.
