First day problem incubation temperatures

Hello, it's me again. A few weeks ago I posted a thread where I was worried because my female snake could have laid down eggs while I was on holiday. Even if I organized myself with another breeder that in case of eggs could have taken care of them, my girl was so clever that she waited for my coming back at home (she laid down 7 wonderful eggs after 37 days from the last shed). The problem rised yesterday (first day of incubation) because I realized that the thermostat was not working properly and I found temperature at 35,1 degrees. From my last check while temperature was 30.9, almost 5 hours passed before I checked again and found temperature at 35.1. Of cours I immediately removed eggs from the incubator while maintaing them in the box, till temperatures returned back on the correct ranges. Then I switched of the thermostat till this morning when I bought a new one. So after all this explanation I was wondering if this time frame of around 5 hours could have damaged the eggs. Does anybody more experienced than me can help me? Thanks

I haven't experienced that (though I've successfully incubated a number of clutches without ever using a formal incubator w/ t-stat at all- just not BP eggs that require more warmth) but let me remind you that nature isn't perfect either. So I'd just stay the course- you'll have to wait & see- I know waiting is torture, but we sign on for that when we breed snakes, eh? ;) Best of luck!

Hello everybody, I'd like to give a little update. After 59 days of incubation all eggs have hatched. So even if temperatures have been quite high for some hours this problem didn't affect the success of all process.
I just wanted to let you know just in case you experience a similar event.
