Sounds like you're doing everything that you can. Just keep the temperature up and the humdity up and there's not a whole lot more that you can do right now.

As for helping them out of the shell that is a tricky situation. Basically if you try to pick/pull some shell off and you see blood...stop. The hatch can naturally last for 24 hours or longer so knowing when to intervene can be hard to determine. If you do try to help take it sslllloooooowwwwwww and eeeeeeasssyyyyyyy.

Best wishes,
