Thank you for all that... I feel I have really messed up putting them in everyday. So would you transfer to the hatching incubator everyday or every other day to try and keep the humidity stabilized?

no ideas on why the eyes are closed guys?
gave them another drink of save a chick. and moistened membranes.
they still have yolk to absorb so the rest is up to them

You will be fine opening the hatcher once a day to put in an egg. Just make it quick!
Only next time gather & put them all in on the same day or stagger if you want between a couple to a few hatch days

How long ago since they hatched?

sbost, put your new still air hatching incubator into the bathroom. That way, you can steam up room by running hot shower before opening bator. The humidity is not affected this way.

CG, our ducky we had to assist last hatch (Tink) had both eyes closed for the first 12 hours. Then one eye opened, but the other stayed closed for another 1-2 days before fully opening normally.
