only about an hour, turn it back down to as close to where it was

one hour isn't that long, plus the egg tub will heat up a little slower than the incubator. it's another barrier from the heat

how much did you take the temps up

facebook was it on ball python breeders group

I'm gonna go ahead and second the notion to return the temps to where they were. Like now. Going over on temp is worse than going under. I don't care who that other breeder his, tell him to shove it. It sounds like your babies are developing normally for a low temperature, just give them a few more weeks at the same temperature. If you spike it now you could cause developmental issues that might not have been there before, it will almost certainly do more harm than good.

time is against you. you need to lower those temps back down. did this other breeder know that it was only around an hour?

8 degree is a huge difference
