I've had one of my girls sitting on 16 eggs since may 20th or 21st. All 16 were fertile but most of them seemed to die late in incubation - there's no movement and the insides seem all... watery? Anyway, 5 or 6 of them are still moving around in there. I've been an anxious wreck since I thought they would hatch last week! I candled them today and am feeling worried since they're moving around considerably less and more sluggishly compared to candling them 4 days ago. Do I need to intervene?

Here's one of the eggs:
