Hey guys
I really need some help
One of my chicken eggs externally pipped for more than 30 hrs now but hasn't made any more progress

I can see the beak and mouth still open a d close like she is talking.
Wondering when will be the right time to help
And yes I have read the assisting hatching post and still confused
I leave her in because everywhere j read it says be patient and let them be

Thank you

Does it look like she's chewing?

She is opening and closing her mouth like she is still talking. Not really chewing
I did end up opening a little more but hit a vein. I stopped and looked into the shell. It looks like there are still tiny veins left to be absorbed. I left her back into the Bator with a wet paper towel under her. Add extra water to make sure she doesn't get dry out
Hopefully she will be out when I get off work
