You dont neccisarily have to, because they wil hatch naturally by themselves. If something goes HORRIBLY wrong, try to help crack the shell only.

Chicken eggs when in incubator should they weigh more each day?
No. In fact they will weigh slightly less when hatching. The weight loss is due to loss of moisture from the porous egg shell for 21 days during development. This weight loss can be reduced with proper relative humidity in the incubator. The lower the humidity surrounding the developing egg the greater the mortality rate of the embryo.
What do you need to get chick to hatch from a egg?
You need to start with a fertilized fresh egg. An incubator, thermometer and hydrometer would also be handy. You also need to be able to devote at least 21 days to the care of the hatching eggs. A live broody hen would do all this for you.

Why would you use a chicken hatching egg rack or tray?
Egg racks or trays are used in an incubator with an automatic turning tray. the tray holds the rack allowing for the 'tilting or rotation of the egg' on a timed basis, emulating the natural movement of the hen. Eggs not rotated have a lower hatch rate and a higher mortality rate upon hatching. (the embreyo has a tendency to stick to the shell).
What do you do if an ostrich egg explode in an incubator about 1000 eggs in the incubator?
Any non-viable eggs need to be removed, and whatever can be cleaned up should be.
