Thunderstorm power out Incubator in distress.

[TippsiRabbit]

Hi ,
my Chicken eggs are at Day 14 in the incubator one of the HHD kind with the Styrofoam around.I woke up at 11 at Night from a Thunderstorm that knocked out Power soon after. I coverd the incubator in big comforter to keep the temperature. and started cooking Water for bottles with a gas bottle burner.Still the temperature dropped to 30 °C .with the hot bottles its slowly rising I am at 35°C now .Do I even have a chance to safe them? please any advice please.

Is your power back on?

power came back on 1 hour ago I plugged the incubator back in and now the temperature is back 37.8 .I am so tired. I wonder if they will even hatch the humidity hit the 80 with the waterbottles and the blankets around now its by 40 .I try to level it to 50 . I was reading some Threads here about while I was watching the blanket Fort ,either they dyed or they live. I should go to bed and sleep

I think you'll be fine. I did an experiment once, let me see if I can find the thread.

It's gone amazingly well for my Muscovy & chicken eggs. Too scared to try it with my call duck & peafowl eggs though.
