Chicks in eggs stuck? Should I help?

[KKVDK]

Hello fellow BYC!
I'm new to incubating eggs and I have 2 eggs that pipped and 1 that's rocking. It's been 9 hours and they haven't done really anything... but they are all still moving. Should I take the risk and help them out? Or do I let nature take its course?

9 hours is not excessive ...it can take as long as 24 hours or more. I would mot suggest helping yet

Agreed. Do not help yet. If the chicks go past 48 hours without hatching, or the membrane dries out, then you could help them.

3 of my eggs have pipped now but I usually keep my humidity between 70-75 in lockdown but it keeps dropping to 67-69% what would you guys suggest?
Thanks

I think the relative humidity is OK but it is not ideal. But what is in life?
