I do assists when they're needed. As long as you're careful to read through the entire article, don't rush things, and follow directions. It would be perfectly fine to assist but it's completely up to them if they would like to step in or not. Some people prefer to just let things be what they will be and there's nothing wrong with that either.

No pip I’ve only seen The egg Rock and herd chirping. My incubator dose not measure humidity but I did wet the sponge lots today. If you have any idea on how to assist hatch or if my chick could be malpostitond that would be awesome thanks for the reply

As long as you know what you're doing, if it's your first time, I wouldn't. But that's just me.

It's everyone's first time at some point! I was a nervous wreck the first time I had to assist a chick. I was on the phone with my chicken guru after midnight, lol, now that's a good friend!
Now I help her when she has issues because I've hatched a couple hundred more chicks than she has. Lol

Read through this article. There are some graphic images but in my opinion it's the most helpful article available on assisted hatches.

If you see if moving and chirping I'm assuming you see an internal pip? Which would mean it's not malpositioned but day 24 is late for a chicken chick to be hatching. Did all of the other chicks already hatch and this is a straggler? Did they all hatch late?
