Normal for chicks to bump unhatched, hatchmates around. It won't hurt them.

Pipping can take any where from a few minutes, a few hours, to a day.

Can you get a picture of the Pip?

Membrane is yellow, when I see this, there's usually a humidity issue. When I get yellow membrane like that, the chicks are sticky, & need to be assistance to hatch.

So, how many hours has it been like that?

I can’t get the humidity to go down. It’s sticky in there. 7 hours

Are you using separate calibrated thermometers, & hygrometers to monitor conditions in the incubator?

So that's from yesterday to today, or are you just talking about 7 hours today?
