Problem with the last phase of incubation. It's day 20 and coturnix quails are not hatching. They start to break out of their shell but never make it all the way through and die or just dying in their shell. Lost 4 that way already.

One egg the shell was falling off. Membrane looks awfully thick. I end up removing shell and membrane for the chick. That one hatched.

I floated the remanding eggs. I have 2 or 3 that are still viable but no sign of hatching. What do I do?

Temp: 99-104-Been having problem with spikes.
Hum: 66-75%

What am I doing wrong?
 
temp should be 99-100 degrees and the spikes might have been a little of a problem give the other 3 a couple more days and then try to help they might not be ready yet
