Checked on incubator and humidity was down to 10% and temp was 101! I added water and candled a few hours later when humidity was back up to 41 % and temp 99. So the air cells look way bigger than 2 days ago and they are mis shappen! is this a problem?
 
Actually it looks like they could be heading into dip down, which happens a few days before hatch as the keet inside gets properly positioned. Since guineas can hatch as early as day 26, it wouldn't surprise me at all if that's what was going on.
