I am expecting a possible power outage later tonight and tomorrow.. how should I keep the eggs warm if it goes out?

Don't open the lid at all. They should be fine for a few hours. What day are they on of incubation? I don't know how long quail incubate.

I think they are in between day 4 and 6, button quail incubate 16 - 17 days.

Okay, the storm tonight is coming at 4:00 AM so I will put them in a corner,(And the incubator, of course) put a warm and moist towel over the incubator, and hang another towel up in front of the incubator before i go to bed..I hope it wont though. Will that work if it does?

make sure you leave some breathing space for them.

I agree, I've always heard not doing anything will retain the heat.
