Egg Foaming while Hatching- Alive! Help!!

[Rookie15]

First timer here, and it's been rough. First was a power outage lasting 18 hours on day 5. Candled on day 9 and only had lost two eggs. Started lockdown on day 19 because of this. Ive had challenges raising my humidity with lockdown, and now I think my humidity reader is just off and actually it's too humid?
When I went to bed last night, (day 20) 4 had pips externally, not an opening just a dry bubbling crack to the shell. I got up in the night and checked and found that one was bubbling/foaming/oozing! Thinking it was about to explode, I took it out. I was wrapped in a towel while I tried to read forums and finger it out. There was no odor. I candled and it was through the air sack. On examination, it looked very wet. I pulled back the membrane some as I saw the egg tooth, and the chick cheeped! It was alive!
I rushed it back to the incubator. It was probably out for 10+min.
It's now been back in for two hours. It's alive. But has still looks wet.
Now I'm worried that I sabotaged this egg obviously. That it has/will shrikwrap. Also what do I do about the humidity for the other eggs?! My humidity reader says 55%, but this fluid makes me think it's much higher! Stores are not open yet to purchase another humidity reader.

Update: it's been 5 hours. Still alive and chirping. I can see a membrane moving in a rhythm like breathing. The beak is under that, so I assume it's upside down. Doesn't look like the hole size has changed.

you may want to read the Assisted Hatch article. also, did you turn the humidity down? it does sound a bit high.

I did. Again, tricky to gage as I wonder if the humidity reader is not working. But yes.

Those bubbles aren’t humidity, my dumb incubator runs 85% and my eggs have never done that. Something is producing gas which gets trapped in the residual proteins causing suds. Pinpoint hole in air sac? Chick with flatulence (joke)? Bacteria or yeast overgrowth would be my guess, does it smell? If you haven’t I’d chip away at shell and membrane to expose beak and nostrils, stop if you see blood and wait an hour.

I had this happen with a few of my first hatch this year and it was due to my incubator not feeding humidity right and "low" humidity periods before I realized what was going on. I found the liquid very sticky and biggest concern was it hardening and not allowing the chick to turn. I found using a damp paper towel to wipe the sticky away as I slowly helped the process, chipping away a little shell and dried membrane every 2-4 hours. If they had any of the good left by the time they made it out, I ran their bodies under what felt pretty warm to my hands, but not hot, keeping their face well protected from the water. Them put back in the incubator to fluff like a normal hatch and most made it fine and are just a healthy as normal. The only losses were one I helped too fast and unfortunately broke a blood vein and one I initially let try to do it themselves, but the good just hardened around their beak and cut off the breathing. Most important...damp paper towel to get rid of goo especially around face and go slow! Good luck and I hope they made it or this was helpful if it's still alive.
