Got One Hatching! Need Advice

[303hunter]

Only one of four eggs in my incubator was fertilized, and now on day 21 it's hatching!
I increased the humidy, and took out the turner on day 18. We heard the chick peeping, and now see the egg moving, with a small hole on the big end. It should be a white Silkie. What should I do next after it hatches?

I would let it dry out and fluff up for about 6 hours or more, before moving to a brooder.

Right now, the humidity is at 65%, should I leave it there? This is my first hatch, sorry for all the questions.
