i noticed today that the temp in my newest incubator "brisnea eco 20" was down to 95!!!! and the eggs have been in lock down for 3 days they are due tomorrow!, i turned it back up, i dont know how long the temp has been down it would have gone down the last 3 days from lockdown?, i never have problems with my other brisnea holding the temp??? of course these are bought eggs that had a ruff start with the post office being a week late! do you think they are ok or no????? yes hidden river these are my 8 little survivors GLW pale oh i prey they are ok what you guys think??

I am thinking that you have a better chance of them being Ok than of you loosing them all, temp may have only been down for a few hours. I got one of them electronic thermometers and it is always between 98.7 and 100.8 but the other three are always on 99.5

Oh, how upsetting for you. pale My fingers are crossed, hoping your little chickies are going to be fine. Maybe the temp only dipped briefly and you caught it and corrected it quickly. All you can do now is hope for the best. Please let us know how things turn out.

Darn these little eggs have sure been put through the wringer havent they? I would think they will be ok, maybe a bit later than normal, but that was not a significant low temperature really, I have had power outages for 3 hours and the temp got down to the 80's and they were pipping, they all go out ok and did fine. Might lose one or two but I think you will make out ok. A temperature spike is far more devistating than a low.
