PLEASE HELP!!! I am new at hatching eggs, yesterday one of my silkie eggs was moving at the bottom of the incubator, but today nothing is happening!! Did the baby chick die inside the egg?? Geez I hope not! What is going on??

What day are they on?
What is the humdity?
Do you hear anything?
I could be that they have internally pipped and are now resting for the hatch

I dont hear anything, I have no clue how old they are, I got them from a farmer and he said they were layed close to three weeks ago. I candled them when I got them and they were all black and near the air sac I could see movement! So I know they are alive! I was just getting worried that the chick might have died. Nothing has happened since then. My humidity is currently at about 55 percent, it was 70 percent yesterday.

Add more water if you can do it without opening the lid. Tey will dry and and won't hatch well outherwise, good luck!

Humidity is too low.
