Helping chicks? Not always the best thing. I did have a broody parrot and gave her some quail. The parrot wanted to pull the chicks out

So I ended up putting them in a brooder. They survived

If your incubator fails, try a parrot

I've had several coturnix hatch with humidity in the low 30's, so yours should be fine. One thing I noticed the few times I've hatched bobs is that they don't 'pip, zip, and run' like coturnix do. Mine pipped, waited about 24 hours before zipping, then laid there for 6-8 hours more after starting to zip before finally coming out of their shells.

I don't recommend helping them from the shells, most times you'd be the reason they die

If they are noticeably stuck then I'll wrap the end of the egg inside the washcloth, leaving the pipped/zipped end out, but that's it.
