if the temp stays the same, they can last a couple of weeks. (japs anyway)
how do i know this?
well i went on holiday for 2 weeks, i set 60 eggs so was expecting to hatch a couple of days after i got home, i forgot to turn my auto turner on before i went away, and didn't realise till i got back.
out of the 60 eggs i put in, i got 25 hatch, not bad considering they hadn't been turned.
the rest of the eggs had a lot of DIS
so i reckon some of them will survive

hope this helps
