My temps are at 88-89F and the humidity is great. And thru the transilluminator I can see relly strong veins. What can I do to help hatch these guys out? Or should I just be patient? Please help, thnks in advance.

Be patient. If they are incubated on the cool side of 88 degrees, they can take a few extra days. Sometimes the thermometer is not accurate. I had some themometers that read 91 degrees while another in the same place read 88 degrees, while my temp gun would read 92 degrees. I had a clutch this year where the eggs pipped on day 62. You should see pipping in the next day. As a rule of thumb, I will usually manually pip all of the eggs 24 hours after the first baby pips naturally.
Give us an update tomorrow.
Good luck and don't freak out yet.
Tom
