Sticky Chick - Help!!

[HomesteadAddicted]

So, I set 9 duck eggs 33 days ago... 4 have hatched (day 28-30) but I not have two I believe are sticky chicks... one definitely is. I saw they had pipped internally so I made a safety hole, they've opened up a bit and then I've had to help them since I noticed no progress for days. The two seem to still be absorbed their yolk/bloody veins (lots of yawning and chewing motions)... is there anything I can do to ensure they don't cement and have a chance at survival?
Pictures attached...

Put water or coconut oil on the membrane and push it back. Try to free the ducklings head, make sure the opening of the eggshell is wide enough it can push out on it's own.
wiggle it's head a little bit to make sure it's not stuck to the egg.

What kind of duck eggs?

Was your humidity gauge salt tested?
What was your humidity at?

Did that and managed to get his head out... tried to wash off a bit of the goo and then put him back. I noticed the yolk isn't completely absorbed yet.. so he/she is now titled upright in the incubator.

It's a mix breed (pekin, saxony, cayuga Swedish Blue.. one of those combos)
I think the humidity was too high, this incubator doesn't have a gauge and my meter was reading 75% but I don't think it's accurate

The second egg is far worse and sticky then the one I managed to free. Every time I touch it the veins bleed. I'm terrified to open it up but I guess I either try or it dies if I don't free the head more?

Get another humidity gauge before you set eggs again.
There is no doubt your humidity was too high.
Please don't wash anymore unhatched babies

Leave them be and give them time. Don't be in a rush.

Leave it be. If you see blood it is no where near ready to hatch.

Don't set eggs again until you get another thermometer to calibrate too.

Definitely not in a rush, just want to make sure I don't lose them if I can help it. I'll leave them be for now and just watch/pray they make it... they're so cute! Thank you for replying, it's so appreciated!
