Can this egg be save?

If you have an incubator I would put it in there at about 95° if you can set it to this. Leave it in there for 24 hours and see how it does.
If it perks up you can put it back in with its mama.

I agree. A clean environment for the navel to close would be best.

This is just now. I tried to upload a video but can’t figure out how. The chick moves minimally and chirpsz

I agree with the others, an incubator or perhaps even a brooder, warm, clean and dry while the naval closes, and this way no other chicks could peck at it. He should be closed up within a day or two.

Have you cut the string to get the membrane off yet?

If not you're going to want to do that ASAP but do not cut anywhere near the chick... Cut far away closer to the rest of the membrane... If that doesn't make sense say something and I'll draw a picture.
