Hatching, Chaos in the bator!

[Joplus]

I had no clue it would get so crazy in there. Its loud and there's shells and chicks everywhere. I can't see inside due to condensation. The temp dropped too unless the probe is messed up from all this. I don't want to remove the chicks they're soaking wet. But I want to get some shells out. There broken neatly in half so its hard to see especially through the fog whether a shell is covering one. I'm worried a chick will smother. But its looking good, lots of chicks, maybe 20 so far. I turned the temp up a little and I think I'm gonna risk going in. Or should I wait longer? Like til they dry? Its taking a long time, they've been hatching for 24 hours.

Fight temptation and keep the bator closed. The shells are fine to leave in there.

Ok. There's an entire shell enveloping an unhatched egg. The only reason I could see was my "X" was half. There's 12 or so left. I'm not too worried about the humidity since its so high in there. But I probably shouldn't risk 3 dozen for one. But that one is probably dead?
