Incubator unplugged!

[westcoast]

Sometime between 12:30am and 7:00am the incubator was unplugged and mysteriously a cell phone charger was plugged in its place. Arghhh! 12 Black Copper Marans eggs on day 12. Temp down to about 75 deg. F. Anyone know what I should do? What are the odds that these chicks will make it?

Plug it back in and DO NOT OPEN the lid until temp is back up. It takes quite awhile for the egg temp to significantly decrease.

My incubator died on a cold night and the temp radically dropped for at least a good 12 hours! The eggs still hatched!!!
