    If you did not tell me how far along they were I would have guess end of incubation based on the picture.

    Now you can tell they are not your typical smooth egg which that part is normal however even eggs with uneven surface should be plump if they are not, it mean humidity is too low.

    Do you have a lid on those egg box (and I am not talking the lid of the incubator but the lid to each individual box)?

    PS Whatever is in the bottom left is a goner.

    Well there is your problem egg box need to have a lid otherwise they will dry out, find a lid, place a slightly moist paper towel over the eggs for 24 hours, measure the humidity in the egg box once the lead is on it should be close to 100% if not or if the substrate feels dry add water (careful because you don't want to get your eggs too wet either)
