I have a very special egg in the bathroom and power went out. The temp it already down to 95f . It's 730 and powerpoint not suppose to be on till 12. What do I do?

Wrap the incubator in a blanket to retain as much heat as is possible. Unless the temperature drops VERY low, the egg will still be viable.

It depends on the day of incubation. See attached pdf

Early in incubation, the hatch will be delayed so do nothing. Later you need to find a way to keep the incubator warm

On my last hatch we experienced a 7 hour power outage at day 15. I wrapped the incubator in blankets and stayed up until the power came back on and temp was stabilized. All eggs hatched.

I wouldn’t worry too much if you get the heat back up they will be fine. I have hatched a lot of batches and had my temp go down to even 80 esp at lockdown time when you need to raise humidity. It won’t kill them as long as it doesn’t stay that way very long

what in it???

That’s a great idea!

The person who had their electricity go out and used the car for heat ended up hatching their eggs out okay.

That’s a great idea!

yeah and their eggs hatched. I looked up what to do Incase that happened to me when I was incubating. Or take them to someone you know house that still has electricity with the car heat up lol
