My Toddler killed my entire 42 egg hatch! UPDATE: They servived 108 F!

[Elite Silkies]

I think they should be fine. I am glad the baby didn't swallow any styrofoam and is okay. But, I agree even at that age they know what NO means. I think they do anyway, I am still trying to teach my 8 year old twins what the word means.

Def. take pictures for the scrap book.

They can take 112 for a hour or so or 104 for over 12 hours. I have proven it.... You should be ok.

It's probably OK-doesn't sound like the temp was up that high for all that long.

Good luck and sending you healthy embryo vibes

What an unforgettable hatch experience.

Write it up and put it in as a journal entry for that toddler!

Oh no! I have a 3 year old who could be his twin

But, I have two gates, one on top of the other leading into my dining room where the incubator is just for this reason.
Their little hands just cannot resist

Good luck and hope it works out.

I hope ur eggs can make it

. I have a 2 year old and I know what you are going through

Here one of the small things my kid does (@ 14 month old. he'll be 2 on May)

He loves chasing the chickens on the back yard, its so funny

I hope things work out well with the hatch!
