This clutch is our first clutch, and I don't think the eggs are looking too good.
What is the humidity suppose to be? And is the temperature at 80 degree F. OKAY? What else am I suppose to do I feel so helpless Not be able to help the eggs.

Please help someone!!!!!!!!!!!
 
What is it about the eggs that you think they aren't looking good? Without knowing the proper temperatures or humidity, do you know what good eggs look like? (I'm not trying to be jerk asking that question, but it popped into my head :) )

A good pic of the eggs would be the most beneficial. When were they laid? What are you incubating them in (both incubator and media)?

Yes, 80 degrees is an acceptable temperature (75-83F).

egg problem

Well I read lots of infromation on how the egg should look and I also saw a few eggs online. And I don't think my eggs are surviving. The Temperature is always at 80F and humidity is between 66 to 75. They are about a week old. I have an incubator and I also have peat moss in there. I will try to get pictures as soon as I can.
 
Okay, so what is leading you to believe that? Everything sounds right. The pictures will be a big help. Hopefully we'll be able to ease your nerves! :)

eggs

well the eggs are not white like the pictures and they aren't round like them either. I don't expect them to be white as pearls and I don't expect them to be round as the eggs we eat. But they are pruny<-I know not a word, kind of like raisins
 
Did they stick together when they were laid? Look like prunes/raisins as in wrinkly or in size? If they stuck together, you're okay, but if they are also wrinkled, then they are not moist enough in the incubator.
