Was incubating my egg around 80-82. This afternoon, when I checked it, the egg was 85.8. I panicked, opened the lid, and it cooled off to around 81. Checked the egg 10 minutes later and it was ~84. Dropped the incubator way down and now have th egg steady at 80. I'm not sure what caused the spike (haven't had any problems before). Egg is a few days short of 2 weeks in the incubator.

What are the chances the egg has been permanently damaged from this incident?
