my cresteds just had some healthy eggs. they are my first crested eggs. the temp in their incubator is around 62...is this too cold? will they still hatch, but just take longer?

62 degrees is pretty cold. It must be really cold in your house. I hope you dont keep your cresteds at that temp. If the eggs did hatch, it would take a long time. I incubate all my crested eggs at 76.5 and they hatch at around 65-75 days.

What kind of incubator do you have? Is it broken?. Is your thermometer working correctly? Why is your house so cold?
