I would have left the eggs for a couple more days. Usually, it can take up to 3 days for them all to hatch. If in doubt, I candle them to see what is going on. Then it is easy to remove the rotten ones. They do stink! And of course, if a baby chick gets covered with the explosion, the chance of survival is pretty slim. Sorry about Steemie. I am sure you will have many more chickies in your future.
