Welcome to ByC
I hatch a lot of babies and have 100 hatch rates
You can’t not cause shrink wrap when there is no external pip
What day did you set the eggs on
Have you checked eggs over for any bruising as sometimes they don’t get turned and try to pip outside the air cell causing bruising on the egg
75% humidity is a bit high
I run 40-45 till I see first internal pip then jump it to 65 it will increase as they hatch to 70-75
I have also had one miss the air cell and pip the underside and had I not checked my egg I would have lost that one
He is now a year old
Don’t be afraid to check your eggs with no external pips but please do it carefully as you don’t want to disorient them by moving the egg all around
Keep it in the same position
Are you putting the dipped part of the air cell facing up ?

Hi thank you for the advice I've decreased the humidity now there isn't any signs of brusing no I have the air cell facing up with the dark area facing down (if that makes sense) I've candle them yo check for there bill but nothing?...I'm just worrying
