let it drop to 70% i would think like most people here say 65 70% its good

about the pip egg that sounds good that he is working his way out has he gone through the membrane yet? could u see his beack? if so he would hatch soon on his own looks like it.

What should the humidity be in a still air incubator at pipping?
Mine is at 80 or so says my Hygrometer .. is this too low or too high..

Already know i am not going to sleep tonight after seeing the first tiny beak.. am now a very nervous first time brood mom.. lol

oh dam she hatched! flopping around, Is there anything medically I should look at to make sure there is no obvious problems?

As long as the baby is out at this point is good. It'll dry off in about 8 hours. Once the baby is dry and you're sure no more eggs are going to hatch you can move it to a brooder. Personally, because this one hatched late, I would wait a bit to see if others did.

Sounds like she broke a blood vessel and lost too much blood.

wow that does sound like something that could have happened.

The new baby is doing good, she or he is kinda walking hahaha. Ill get her a nice brooder setup. I dont know if all her jumping made another egg crack or all her chirping got another egg to start hatching. Ill post more pics tonight, I got a little bit of video too.
