Cursed Irene................
So I have my very first clutch at the half way point in incubation and the power goes out due to high winds! I'm estimating that the temps in the egg container got down to 78 degrees for 4-6 hours. I ended up using a small candle in the incubator to bring the temps slowly back up while we waited for power to be restored. It has been and so now I need some opinions on what this may/may not have done to the embryos. Friggin hurricane!

They will be fine..Cooler temp don't seem to do much to harm the babies as higher temps. do and it was only for a few hours, that's a drop in the 60 day bucket..You'll be fine.
