Incubator temp dropped after lockdown

I don't know why but after I took out the Turner, the temp dropped to 35-36 celcius and won't go any higher no matter what I set it to. Can the embryos survive?

I always drop my temp before hatch to at least 97-98°F, since they can produce most of their own body heat by then.

The coldest parts of my incubator gets to around 96°F, & the rest of the chicks did fine.

Cover with a towel if you're concerned.


I incubated my eggs at 97, 98, & 100°F all the way until hatch day. I uncovered the front of the incubator since that was the warmest.
