I would leave them alone, as long as you see some activity. Sounds like the one with the crack half way around will be out soon. You want to keep the humidity as high as you can for them to hatch, if you open the bator you will lose alot of the humidity.

Do you know what your relative humidity is right now? Ideal would be around 75-85%

Good luck
