Has anyone had a successful hatch after their incubator drops to 75 for 24 hrs? Possibly less than 24hrs im not entirely sure. First time trying button quail eggs and my daughter is just as excited as I am. PLLEEEAAASSEEE tell me its going to be okay.

I still cant pinpoint why my incubator did this, I unplugged and plugged it back in and adjusted the lid. I went to candle them and realized they were immediately cold to the touch. Now im trying to gradually warm them back up with out cracking any eggs.
 
75F for 24 hours is definitely pushing it, but I've heard of similar during power outages, and in one case, every egg hatched. I wouldn't lose hope. Just candle them in a day or two and see if there's any movement, assuming these have been in there for at least a week.
