I bought a new incubator a Hovabator 2362N. My eggs are day 14. The temp stayed exactly at 100 for the first 5 days, now it seems almost every other day it needs to be turned down, I check it about 4-5 times a day and like I mentioned it seems every other day it is spiking to 102. I never know how long it has stayed at that temp. So I turn it down and it stabilizes again at 100 until it spikes again. When I candle they all seem fine.
So my question is how long after a temp spike do you expect them to die?
Is this something that could effect them at any point? For example, If they are moving and seem fine now after my temp spike 2 days ago are they going to be fine( assuming nothing else happens) from that spike or could it effect them later on during incubation?
I just always feel relieved that I can still see them moving a few days later, then I had a thought that maybe it might not harm them right away but could have a residual effect.
Anybody know this answer?
Thanks
