power failure... :(

I am on day 20 of 21 with my eggs in the bator and were having a sever storm and the power went out... hope it comes back soon :/

You should be okay - just don't open the incubator! I've got my fingers crossed for you.

The temp got down to 84... ima candle the younger ones after it heats up some. But the eggs retain heat for a while don't they?

 

[thebitty]

And thanks lol

It's no different when the mamas leave the nest for a while. They should be okay.

they say an egg can have no heat for 12 hrs. and still be ok- the hatch may be delayed by how ever long the power out was.

 

[thebitty]

That'll be great because it was like 45 min

We had a thunderstorm come through, and power went out. but it must have been just for a bit because the bators held their heat.

2 of mine are hatching now
