Nervous Wreck!

Yes I have an extra humidity reader in there and it’s reading the same 75-76. They will be okay with 80-85 humidity? Thank you!

Yeah they'll be fine if you up it. Mine always skyrockets to 90%+ when the first chick hatches through the last chick. They always hatch just fine. It will help the other chicks to not have the same problems.

How long has the first one been pipped? What os your humidity at? Whatever it's at, you need to up it. Those chicks look very dried out. They might be shrink wrapped. Go into the bathroom and run a really hot shower, get the bathroom super steamy. Take those two eggs in there and rub coconut oil on the membrame to moisten it some. Then put them back and raise the humidity in your incubator. Make sure you don't get oil in or on their bills. Do you see any yawning motions?

Yes they are yawning and chirping..my first time hatching but their little cries sound “stressed” and it’s killing me. Raised up humidity as well.

Yawning means they're still absorbing, so leave them in. There's nothing you can do until they finish absorbing, just keep the membrane nice and moist and keep an eye on them.

Yes both have started to zip again after raising humidity and spraying them with warm water!! I’ve been watching so close I’ve been fogging up the incubator window they are on a roll now so they must have been drying out! I wonder why because the others had no issues only these two babies!
