Looks like it's doing fine to me. You should only concider helping if it has been at least 24 hours since it progressed.

How long do you think it will take to hatch from now

URGENT!!! I assisted with the hatch because there had been no progress for over 24 hours, it’s now completely out of the shell but there was quite a lot of bleeding I don’t think it had finished absorbing everything, I removed the egg from the incubator and the chick is inside, he isn’t moving much but is chirping more than I expected, it looks like the umbilical cord is still attached and isn’t absorbed yet, idk if he’s still bleeding, what should I do?

In the future if there is bleeding you should always stop and leave it be for a while. It is important to only remove small bits of shell at a time and check progress. Assisting a hatch too early can be fatal. Some pictures might be helpful. If the duckling is still attached to the egg you can set the duckling and the egg inside of a cup on a dry paper towel until it finishes absorbing. If it is still bleeding you might be able to dab a small amount of cornstarch where the bleeding is occurring. We all make mistakes and I’m hoping this little duckling will pull through for you. Maybe @Isaac 0 will be able to help you.
Here is a wonderful article by @Pyxis if you ever assist another hatch.

I tried putting them back in their shell wrapped in some toilet roll but they keep climbing out and trying to walk around

How much of the yolk is not absorbed? If you are able to get a picture that would be helpful to see what to do next. Is it just this one duckling that is out?
