power loss during incubation what hatch delay to expect

[Habibs Hens]

i have 6 runners in the bator and on day 3 i woke up to fine the power off

i susspect my kids did it as the bator is in their room

with that said i checked on them at 10am and my kids woke at around 7-8am

today is day 7 and i candled them to find 3 with spider veins

what sort of days delay can i expect on the hatch


btw the incubator was not opened when power was lost and when i turnt it back on the thermometer showed 26dec Cecius

and it should have been 37.5deg cecius

if it was only for few hours it shouldn't delay much maybe at most a day.

Its most likely that you shouldnt really notice any difference- it takes longer than the incubator temp dropping for the core of the egg to lower in temp- so 2- 3 hours wasnt long enough to make a noticeable difference. Best of luck with you hatch.

im a bit worried i been turning the eggs 3 times a day but they seem to be on one side of the egg shell almost like they are stuck

its possible the yolk is stuck to shell from when the temp dropped having settled cooled and dried
