Large air cell eggs

[jessejeanne]

So we have two eggs left under a heat lamp since momma didn't sit on them anymore and they were near hatching day...
We heard one chirping two days ago, but since then nothing happened.
I candled very carefully yesterday, but these two eggs have a very large air cell. Someone told me it indicated that they died while some others tell me they might have died bcs the humidity was too low.
I sprayed water on them a couple times and I tried but i think i failed.

What do you guys think? I'm probably to late with helping them no?

aircell size isnt something i can read, ive hatched little un's and bigguns .. it helps me decide on humidity level early on so i can shoot for ideal ... but no, unregulated under a heat lamp risks one of two things - chilling them or cooking them .. or maybe cooking them on top and chilling them on the bottom .. but hopefully they make it, if theyre strong enough they might 'overcome' ..

Please try to increase humidity.
The air is too dry.
Aftet increased humidity the air cell will shrink considerably.
The chicken babies can also move more freely in the eggs.
