Pipped egg and a power outage!!!

[Asliter]

Hello all! First time hatching eggs here, I had 9 eggs in the incubator, 6 have hatched and have been moved to the brooder. Still waiting on the last three stubborn ones here on day 23. One pipped this morning so I haven’t given up hope yet. However all of the sudden the power has just gone out!!.. is it safe to say the last three are a loss?..

No. Wrap the bator in towels, try to keep as much heat in there as possible. There’s still a bit of hope. Keep us updated!

Luckily I have a gas stove and I boiled some water and put it into glass jars. I set the jars on top of the Bator and wrapped it in a towel. The temp is staying steady now at 82.5. I’ll keep you posted.

Power came back on around 2 a.m.! I noticed the one who pipped is starting to unzip!
