I'm not sure what to tell you--could you go ask on the forum? You would get more answers there. I have had some babies die in the shell, but not many. Go to the Chickens in the Road forum and see if anyone there has any ideas: http://chickensintheroad.com/forum They don’t move around as much toward the end because they don’t have as much room.

I didn't give up on mine until it was a few days past time. I was about to throw them out when one hatched! So I was glad I waited. If I were you, I would keep them and keep going just in case.
