Hatch date at 86F?
We had several air conditioning failures this year, one of which happened while we out of town. The the house got up close to 100F, which probably did some real damage to my first two clutches. So I've been incubating at 86F, trying to give myself few extra degrees of wiggle room. But now it's day 63 for clutch #2, maybe 64 or 65 for clutch #1... and still no pips.
Anybody have experience incubating at this temperature? When should I expect to see some noses?

Re: Hatch date at 86F?
I'm cooking just about everything at 86-86.5 (similar to last year), and expect the majority of pips to be at 66-68 days
If your eggs are still clumped together and your temps have been constant and correct
they should be seperating very easily, which tells you that you have mere days to go

Okay! Apparently the answer is day 66! Because there's a little black pastel nose sticking out.
And yeah, the clump did just sort of all fall apart a couple days ago.

Haha, okay. The nose disappeared when I made the opening larger. But here's one intensely dark black pastel:

Clutch #2 pipped at day 69. I got impatient and cut one of the eggs the night before, but the next morning there were slits in both eggs.
Clutch #3 is on day 63. I've bumped the temperature back up to 88F for clutch #4.
