Severely dimpled eggs.
Hi guys, I have a small clutch of 3 eggs that are on day 46 and they are severely dimpled in. I have tried over the past week and a half to get them rehydrated but nothing seemed to help and they have continued to dimple even more.
It's to the point I am thinking the babies on the inside have no room and are more then likely getting a little to cramped inside.
Is there any I can do? Is day 46 way to early to cut?
Thanks in advance

What is the humidity in your incubator

All the tubs I have in now are near 100% this is the only clutch that seems to have had an issue. Not sure if the press n seal wasn't on good early on but what ever the issue was I couldn't reverse it in this clutch. All my other clutches are perfect and healthy.

I tried putting a small container of open water in with them and even damn paper towels over them but still they only got worse.

The eggs are fine. Leave them alone. They do dimple when it's close to hatching.

Yeah but these are not just a little dimpled. They are extremely dimpled. I have never had a clutch dimple up this bad before.

Post pictures would help.
Adding more water can harm then help them. Humidity Is At 100 Percent Already too!

You can try to candle them to see any movements. I would just not panic and wait it out. Good luck!

All I can see when I candle is veins. The eggs are so dimpled the flashlight cant get a good straight beam in them.
Here is a pic I just took.

I think it looks fine. The egg on the left I would pinch the middle and try to lift and straighten up a little bit.
