OMG! I accidently unplugged to incubator for 2-3 hours!

I just went to check on my duck eggs and realized I unplugged both plugs and didnt realize it! Earlier I unplugged the toaster and didnt realize I did both! Its been 2-3 hours down on 80. I just plugged it back in. WHats the chance they will be ok? I feel so bad...on top of stupid.

Don't fret over it, I had the lightbulb in mine go out for who knows how long, and still had a hatch. Good luck

Don't worry, in the wild (or my backyard to be exact) my silkie hen just had a 100% hatch on the eggs under her and she got up for sometimes up to 45 minutes while the eggs just sat in the cold. Your hatch will be fine I'm sure, so happy hatching and good luck!

I did the same thing earlier this winter and they still were fine. It about gave me a heart attack though!

I did that last year for almost a day and they hatched later than normal but they were still fine.
