temp in incubator went up to 110 - 120 degrees is there any hope?

Just and FYI - they all died the first time the incubator malfunctioned. so if the temp goes up that far, its NOT good.

got new eggs in the incubator now, - NEW incubator. Hoping these are still fertile, he's loosing his tale slowly...

I did the same today the temp just shot up the are 3 days in I'm going to candle them in a couple days

I hope when you candle them they will look okay.

did they live????
when I put new eggs in the new incubator 2 out of 4 developed and they both hatched
Hoping for your chicks

110 - 120 degrees for anywhere from 4 - 8 hours, humidity dropped to 20%. got it back up to 50% but its broke and is keeping the temp up there, going to get a new one now
I think I cooked em very very frustrated and very very sad

Did they hatch?? This is my first time and the temp rose while I was sleeping!

Temperatures over 106 will kill because at that point proteins start denaturing.

Depending on the age of the embryo in the incubation process, 104.9°F or 40.5°C for over an hour will kill the embryos, if they are very near to hatch time it has been recorded that temperatures as high as 110°F for an hour or less may not kill the chicks.

I had a temperature spike one time in an old LG incubator. It spiked at 111°F for how long I don't really know?...pretty sure it was over an hour but all 12 of the Red Golden and 11 Amherst eggs, I had in the incubator hatched....they piped about an hour after I noticed the spike and got the temp back down to normal operating temperature. They all hatched without any trouble or deformities.

Heres a article (PDF) produced by Brinsea, pretty good at explaining temperature devations and the results of those devations from the optimum temperature for incubation.
