Incubator Unplugged Eggs on Day 9

[chickbrad24]

So I guess sometime last night or this morning my incubator was unplugged by my cat playing with the cord and unplugged the incubator. The temp was at 70.6% I checked the eggs and they were cold. What are the chances that the embroys are still viable. I candled and they still look good plugged the incubator back in and in minutes it went back to temp. Will they live ? Should I take the chance and continue and check on day 14 to see if they are still available any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

I guess see if they hatch

We lost power for about 3 to 4 hours in April, I still was able to hatch out a few chicks. Not what I was hoping for but some still did survive. Keep it going and candle them in a few days. Hope for the best.

Than you all whom responed, I will check on day 14 to see if they are still growing. They are silkies when candled an day 7, 14 of them looked good and were developing nicely. I will keep you posted on progress.

Yes, keep us updated, don't get your hopes too high though. You might only have a 50% hatch or even lower. Hope things go out well when candling.

Just got home from work candled 2 eggs, There was movement inside. I didn't want to candle all of them, because of the incubator being unplugged and didn't want incubator temp to get to low. I'll update on day 14.

Oh, that is good news, I know you are relieved at least a little bit.

We had a horrible outage in April, many hours of the incubator only being covered. Still had a good hatch. Ive heard the most crucial times are the first five and last five days.

Candled the eggs today. I jave 12 developing nicely and lots of movement. Todays day 13 candled one day early, just because I was nervous.
