This last weekend I had 8 ducklings hatch out but 3 of them didn't hatch with the others so I had to help them. In the process I ended up breaking some of the veins in the 3 eggs. we got the ducklings out and the yellow one is doing ok but the other 2 seem to maybe be disabled some how. the one I think can't see out of one of his eyes,(It's closed most of the time and it has some white stuff in it) and the other duckling is very weak. any idea what I should do? thank you

The first picture are from just now and the last two pictures are from this morning

@DucksAreBest quick question
if I drop my temp down to 36-36.5 (98-98.5) but leave my humidity alone at 67% they should in theory hatch successfully?

You need to get that humidity way up there....

Why do you want to do that? They will hatch, but that will make a delayed hatch.

Ok I’m confused again
