Temperature Spike...Could eggs make it?
I just posted a thread about a incubator malfunction. I think my eggs could have been at 91 for up to 12 hours and 94 for up to 8 hours. Is there any chance they are still ok? They were laid on Friday.
Re: Temperature Spike...Could eggs make it?
As I am not the "Egg-Incubating" expert, I will have no say in weather(wrong "weather"?) or not they will make it. But I will say, just keep incubating them at the appropriate temperature, and see if they make it.

I had a clutch this season that around day 40-45 there was a spike in temps and they got up around 92-93 and stayed that way for several hrs most likely before I caught it and I still had 100% hatch. I hope your turns out ok.

Thanks...I'm just really worried since its so early in incubation...I'm feeling a lil depressed about it...hopefully it will be ok
Re: Temperature Spike...Could eggs make it?
they will most likely be ok. let us know how everything turns out
Re: Temperature Spike...Could eggs make it?
I find it hard to believe that in the wild the temps stay exact, so a little flux both ways probably doesn't hurt. But definitly try to keep them a constant temp.

I think you'll be fine. Just check the temps daily. The eggs will produce some heat.
