Too blurry to tell what is wrong.  
I assume you cut off a spider baby with plans to propagate and they turned brown after you cut them? You may have cut them too early before aerial roots formed. (I’m guessing since I can’t see the plant.)  
My photo shows both an immature offspring (Hawaiian) and one more than ready to plant (Curly Bonnie). I’m not sure if this helps.

No problem. Just give the mother plant bright light, higher humidity, regular feeding and water when the soil is dry about 1 or 2 inches. She will put out a lot of spider babies.
