Lost power Duck & Goose Eggs

[CedarCreekCattleCo]

We lost power due to a storm last night, we were out of power roughly 5 hours. The incubator dropped down to 77 degrees before we had power back, most of these eggs are about 17 days. The longest have been in for 22 days. Should I expect a later hatch date or do you think the eggs are not viable anymore ?

If they were viable, they still should be. Hatch date may be off by a bit.

I read that they are stronger than we think. They were up to proper temp and then slowly went down to 77° for an hour or two, then came back up. My educated guess says they're fine.
