I have 11 eggs in the incubator that were fertile at day 7. Two of them pipped on day 19 and hatched yesterday, day 20. The other 9 haven't pipped or anything yet. Yesterday I saw some of the eggs moving, but nothing this morning. Today is day 21. Is there still hope that the others will hatch? THe ones that hatched first are doing great, but at hatch they showed some signs of incomplete yolk absorption/ rough navels. So maybe they were early, instead of the others being late?

I'm using a still-air hovabator. Right around lockdown we had a massive 2-day thunderstorm. So maybe the humidity went too high?
Experienced hatchers, help me out!
 
Yeah, I def. won't take them out for another three or four days. It's just discouraging to think that only two out of eleven might hatch. Last time I hatched I had 10 out of 11 hatch. I got spoiled to thinking every hatch would be that good.
