Hi i made a post earlier one of my chicks piped i opened the incubator due to low humidity i opened it again when i saw it pipped and rolled it over it didn’t movement again so i panicked and assisted it. The second egg same thing so i assisted it also but this chick had cooked yolk on it will it be ok? And will it drop off?

When you assist a chick, leave it alone. Make sure your humidity is at 65 to 70% and 99.5F.

Any yolk sac still attached will eventually fall off.

The chick on the right looks premature and dead. I hope I'm wrong.
The black one? Both chicks are breathing, humidity is at at 72 and it will go up more because of the hatched chicks

You'll get more replies if you stick to one thread, you already have a bunch of people advising you on this in your other thread.
What makes you believe they are shrinkwrapped?
You cannot tell if a chick is shrink wrapped by candling, I believe you are just seeing the air cells drop, this is normal. Please leave them be

Thank you!! I really appreciate your advices i left them. One hatched on its own and now one left. I should’ve left the two at the beginning now I’m not sure if both of them going to make it. The black one is premature and weak. The yellow one might have curled toes on one leg, i panicked and made poor judgement.

We all make mistakes, but learn from it and try to be more patient next time- Without opening the incubator or disturbing any at all,
Is the yellow chick walking/standing?
It took my duckling a while for her toes to uncurl. It might just take a short while for him to adjust.
For the black one, is there much yolk left, do you know? There's a chance he might make it, but it is worrying since he's premature

All five eggs hatched!! Started with 7 eggs total 4/6 serama and 1 oegb. What an roller coaster ride, the black premature getting alittle stronger i fed it sugar water. The yellow one toes seems to be ok its not too curled. So now on to the next stage!! Thank you!!

That's brilliant news! Has the yolk all been absorbed by the black one, and is he eating and drinking?
I'm so happy everything worked out. No eggs left right?
