Help! It's not looking good

So I'll start from the beginning, so on day seven there was no airsack in my eggs, someone told me to lower the humidity, because it was at 60 70% so I lowered it, so now my eggs are at day twenty-one there is no wodiling no chirping and when I started lockdown the eggs were where they were sopposed to be, also the airsack was fine, so could it be that I lowered the humidity and I'll just get a late batch or they are dead in the eggs.

60 to 70 percent was way too high to start with, you only ever want it that high at lockdown. I keep mine at 30% for the first 18 days. The humidity being lowered from 60 to 70 percent to an appropriate level wouldn't kill your chicks or make the hatch late, but it being so high to start could mean they didn't lose enough moisture and drowned in the shells. Can you post a picture of the air cells? Also what kind of incubator are you using and what have your temperatures been?

Would it be fine to open the incubator at lockdown, also on day seven I lowered it, to 45%, my incubator is still air 2150

What was your temperature at? Yes, if you have no pips, there's no danger in opening the incubator even during lockdown.

From day seven to day seventeen 30-45% lockdown day seventeen to now 70% I could also try a float test, should you see wodling at day 21 or is it sometimes?

Do you think there fine or should I throw them?
