    Will this hurt my chances?

    I just noticed the other day that my temps were off by around 10 degrees. They were up to 100 on the hotspot and about 90 on the cool side and I was doing nightime drops. I just checked them about a week earlier and they were in normal temps so it was off for about a week. I ordered a new thermostat so everything is fine now. They are still building and have just went off feed and are seeking the cool side still. Will this hurt their chances of ovulating and giving me eggs?

    If they are still building chances are they stayed on the cool side mostly anyways, I doubt there would be any issues.

    I doubt a temp fluctuation that small would hurt anything, especially since they're likely on the cold side anyway. I'd say if the females weren't burned by it, they're in the clear. Out of curiosity, what kind of thermostat was it that broke?

    I dont even think that they went onto their hotspots during that period of time at least I hope not.
