Quail eggs gone cold

Got up this morning only to find that my incubator had failed and the heat had dropped to 20 degrees. the eggs had no heat left in them so the incubator must of been off for some hours. heat on again now and back to 99 degrees. eggs had been incubating for 14 days. is there any hope that they may still hatch!!

They might still hatch. How long were they cold?

Guess it could be for 4/5 hours. there was no heat in the eggs at all, just room temp about 20 degrees what you think, thanks

Its possible they'll hatch, maybe a day late, only one way to find out.
