Is the membrane around the chick wet or has it dried out? If it looks dry apply water to it with a paper towel and try and get the humidity higher. Put lid back on and check hourly

Temp has a lot to do with the day try hatch. I would leave this egg be unless it declines.

it was pretty dry last night but I raised humidity just from common sense.. the hour since I posted this post little chicky has hatched but it has a red fleshy ball on it bottom is that something to do with the yolk? If I’m correct but mr wife seems to be worried about a white And brown gooey substance on it bum on the fleshy bit described

It’s hatched now but legs are shaking a lot and on it’s back is that normal?

Is it the yolk sac exposed? One of ours is exactly the same.

And is that just it’s poo in the picture? My wife’s abit worried about it

I would say that that is the yolk sac. Exactly the same as our 5th chick. Keep it in the incubator but cover it with the egg shell the best you csn and a moist paper towel. Apparently they need to absorb this on their own. Ours has managed to do so but is lying on the incubator floor (to me what's seem to be dying slowly) this is our first time so I can't assist more.
