    You'll just have to keep them at the proper temps from now on, and see what happens. 95F for a short period may not be enough to kill any of them, but if it hit them at the wrong point in development, you may wind up with hatchling deformities.

    Good veins aren't always a sure way of determining what is inside is still alive. Those eggs could go full term, looking white and pretty with stillborns. Poke around the egg with your finger in a month or so if they don't mold up and you'll see movement if they're still alive.

    you "may" see movement if they are still alive. there are eggs that perfectly fine that show no movement

    It's unfortunate that it happened early on in incubation, as that increases the risk of defects, but again--there is no way to know how it will turn out until they hatch. Cross your fingers!

    I guess there's no way to know for sure, but veins say don't give up, don't they?

    You should be fine. If they do however go bad, you may know as soon as next week. The veins were formed when the egg was fertizled. Doesn't mean much at this point other than the eggs were viable. It is what it is, nothing now will change the outcome. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

    I think everything should be fine.

    Good Luck!
