Bad news:( I came home to find that the lights went out for a bit and the plug the incubator was in didn't come back on when the rest of the house did. The temp went down to 78°f.
I moved the incubator and plugged in my heating pad. I did a water test to warm them up and check for life and it looks like two of them are okay, but one is iffy. I wrapped them in the heating pad until the incubator warmed up again. I'll have to check again in a few hours.:hit

Oh that stinks. Hopefully all will be ok.
 
:hit:hitThey didn't make it. There was one that I knew for sure was still alive earlier, but when I cracked the air cell I saw that it was shrink wrapped. The drop in temp didn't help. I wish I would have helped it out when I saw it move. Another one was in position, but the last one was malpositioned, it's head was in the small end. I would love to just hop right in and try again but I'm going to wait until after my sister's wedding.
