I was just wondering what is going to happen. Last night my electricity went off for over 12 hours. The incubator very slowly dipped from 89.9 degrees to about 74 degrees over a 4 hour span. I keep this incubator in the basement. So about 5 this morning, I moved all eggs upstairs, incubator and all and hooked them up to a generator. Slowly, I raised the temps back up to 89-90 degrees. All eggs in this incubator are in several stages of development. I have pins, mojaves, pastels, and het pieds all in here, so I hope they all make it, but I am worried.
I have two clutches due this week to hatch. They seem alright. One set is starting to pip already. What are my chances that the rest of the clutches are going to be ok? Does anyone have any success stories to help raise my hopes? Thankyou for all your replies.

you should be fine...I have had this twice in two years and no problems!!! I keep about 8 2 liter pepsi bottles of water closed of course in my incubator and they hold temp for awhile!
