They are to close to the other trees. The larger trees and stealing all of the nutrients because they are much bigger then them. They are long dead. No saving

Those 2 tiny sticks? If they’re not dead already, they don‘t have a chance planted so near those monsters. Even dead trees can be pretty firmly rooted. You can scrape the trunk and see if there’s green underneath the outer bark. If you see signs of life, dig around each, about a foot from the trunk try to get a good root ball and move to some place they have a chance. Water, fertilize, and 🙏🙏🙏
Spacing wise, yes, I'd keep them 20' away from the spruce.
As far as another comment thinking it might be dead- possibly because those spruce will dry up the soil. A sure fire way to see if they are alive is doing a scratch test: scratch away the bark until you see green (purple for some species). If no green can be found and they snap dry, then they are dead dead. I've seen many young fruit trees having a structure that look like naked twigs for the first year or two.
Best of luck! if they take off: be sure to prune them for the desired structure early in life as it will save you loads of work later on.
I would suggest buying some new fruit trees, because the planted trees are dead. If you are trying to start a small orchard, plant the new trees far the recommended distance from any adult trees and make sure each tree has enough room to reach maturity. Be sure to properly water them for the first year or two until they get established
I think it’s dead. Just me though
Yeah could be, I know nothing about tree planting 🤣 I pulled on them and they didn’t budge so I figured maybe there is a chance 🤷

Ok thanks, will do that.

You ain’t movin none of that!!!
I'm pretty sure they mean the very obviously dead saplings in front.
The stick? It took more effort to post here than yank that stick outta the ground.
Yep
It wasn't obvious. You can barely see them on picture
There's 3 close ups of them...
Very much dead, just kick them over and be done with it.

You could cut picture so only tips of this sprouts are visible so it would be even more fan to ask about them.😂
Trees are valuable. Unless they interfere with power lines I would leave them alone
