lost power in snow storm

ok i think i have a big problem at day 6 of incubation we had a big snow storm and i lost power for 50 hours the inside of bator read 55* should i toss them and start over?

I doubt any would hatch at this point.

If you're on day 6... candle them and see if you can see veining or movement.
It won't hurt to try.

try for another week and see what happens when you look inside of them.. if nothing then throw out

I agree,I would keep them going for a week and then candle them.People get surprised all the time with hatching eggs.

i candled and there is signs of veining so i guess i will wait and see

Good luck to you!! I lost power for most of the day around day 14, (I didn't know it, as I wasn't home) but by the time the power came back on, the incubator temp was 77! I spot checked the next day on 2 eggs and saw movement, but last night when I put them into the hatcher, I only saw movement in about 10/29! (All had movement on day 12). I am keeping my fingers crossed that they were just resting up for the big hatch!!

ok i candled on day 18 and it only looks like i lost 2 out of 42 eggs there are around 15 dark eggs that i couldnt see in so i left them in also . will the loss of power extend my hatch date?

For the length of time that you were out of power, I would guess yes. Mine wasn't delayed, but I was only powerless for about 8 hours. I ended up with 15/29 hatching. good luck!!

On a 30 hour power outage I have hatches going on now that were delayed only by about 10 hours. They shouldn't be hatching until tomorrow

Just watch closely for pips. Mine have only been on Lockdown for 2 days and are hatching fine.
