Eggshell crack on hatching egg!

[Jml387]

Hello, this is my first time hatching eggs in an incubator and the very last egg of 6 has a large chip in the eggshell with the membrane intact underneath. There is a small slit in the membrane and the chick is pipping inside so I’m assuming that they tried to crack through but the 5 other chicks rolled it and the shell fell off.

I’m very worried the membrane will dry out so I just rubbed coconut oil on it, at what point should I intervene and help the chick out??

It should be fine. 24 hours after pipping is when you can start to really look and see if something is wrong.
