temp is 99 humidity is in the 80s. the egg in the red rag is the most active. the egg with yellow color was moving for a while just now. the other egg seem to move but not a lot. i've been misting them & talking to them. i cant hear anything when i put the eggs to my ear. i've been really looking at them & i dont see their beaks. it is freaky looking at them move, looks like a heart or organs moving/pulsing. i can some what see what i think is a little yolk. ~ why do they look like this? ~weren't they ready to be born? ~should i not have done this/try to help hatch? i guess they must be able to breath now. ~ they wont drown in the water when i mist them will they? the membrane/white skin looking stuff, it dries fast ~ how often do i mist it? THANK YOU AGAIN FOR HELPING ME I REALLY WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, Julie oh and i bought some Niacin last night it was on sale..buy 1 get 1 free lol love specials.

You will need to mist about ever hour or so now the eggs are open. It really hard to say for sure- opening the eggs- may have allowed them more air- but with blood still in the veins they arent ready to hatch yet. You would not have known they were so dry had you not opened the egg- or that they may be the wrong way in the eggs. You will just have to wait for a while longer- and monitor how they are doing. Talking to them is great. It will encourage them to move around more.

Its weird that you have had alot of them turned round the wrong way in the shell. I had 2 in my last hatch and noticed in time to break shell off move membrane and the inner membrane was clear, all veins had gone so I more or less pulled the soft membrane out the way and let them wriggle free. They were my last 2 to hatch.

yes it is weird that I am the one who gets the difficult eggs to hatch. someone is trying to discourage me from incubating & hatching eggs. & its kinda working.
