I candled tonight, the last time as I was putting them into lockdown and I candled one with a huge aircell taking up nearly 1/3 of the egg and there was a bit of the dark mass inside the aircell but no much. I found 4 like this ( the smallest ones ) and the last one made a soft raspy ( the only way I can describe it ) sqeeking chirping niose. the other 6 seem fine with normal aircells.
Is this ok?
will they make it?
should I be doing somthing?

please, please, please help

Stranger things have happened. I just read a post where a chick hatched in the turner a day early...he was fine. What was your temp during incubation?

Thank-you sooooooo much, seriously I am so stresed right now I feel like I am going to faint or somthing.
 
I have had so many attemtps at this and I just keep picturing the one chick that actually got to pip ( we helped it out after 2 days ) with it's intestines in a sack outside it's body. not nice.
 
I sure will forget those unplesent thoughts ( well, half ) when all my chickens ( and guinea fowl ) are all hatched, healthy and beautiful.

Help. Day 23. Are the chicks shrink wrapped? No hatches in 16, but 2 external pips, with no progress?
