Help please!!

If I drop the temp won't it affect the ducks hatching? :/

I meant AFTER those hatch. Don't drop it now!

I'm sorry I wasn't clear.

edit - how much longer on the ducks?

Not sure, today is day 25 for them in the incubator. Day 27 since it was laid.

Also, traveling with the chicks to bring them to their new home, do I have to have the heat lamp for travel? Mine has to be plugged into the wall. It's about a 15 minute drive.

Is it very cold where you are? If they are out of the elements in box where they can get tightly together for warmth they should be fine. You could add warm towel or heat pack if it's very cold where you are.

I am in South FL, the temps is 86'

Best of Luck Ronie and thank you all for coming so quickly to help as I couldn't, no experience with hatching eggs. My phone died but thankfully was able to rally troops first. I will be charging and then checking back later for moral support as it's all I got in this situation.

Thank you for all your help!!!

They'll be fine...I would not run the a/c. I brought mine home from feed store in small cardboard box with bedding and 6 to keep warm it was Feb and I'm in Ohio. I had heat on of course and was only 10 mins from home.
