even though no one replied to my call for help last night i saw people had veiwed my post so thought i would update incase others have the same problems:

origional post.

so my eggs are due today they are button qauil eggs none have pipped so far but i know thats ok as its been known for buttons to hatch up untill day 21 thing is thought about 40 mins ago we had a power cut i instantly ran to the bator and covered it in tinfoil and blankets to keep the heat in, the temp didnt fall too low i had a digital thermometer in it to check the lowest it went was 94 will they be ok the power now back on and the heat back up too 100 as its a forced air incubator im just really worried so any advice reasurance much needed

update:

i had one egg pipped about 7am this morning this chick is still not out but cheeping so i know its ok
and a second chick has hatched fully and is drying off in the bator
even though i new my button quail chicks would be small its just simply amazing to see how small (tiny?) they really are

further updates and pictures will be posted on this thread if peole are intrested:

We have bantams we are hatching and I knew they would be small. Just how small are your button quail?

Oh! congrats on your new babies!

How long was your electricity out - less than 40 minutes then?

We are having lightening and thunder this morning and it makes me nervous!

I have turkey eggs in the 'bator and they are only on day 11.

I'm glad it didn't hurt your hatch at all!

I saw button quail in person for the first time a couple months ago and was blown away by how tiny they are.
