They were due to hatch on Sunday night and one hatched and was walking around last night its fluffed up now but the others have only just started to pip so they could take another day to come out and longer than that to fluff up
 
Probably take it out. Cos they tend to disrupt the other chicks trying to hatch out. As long as it's all fluffed up. You got your brooder setup with heat pad or lamp or what ever setup you got going. I use a yellow 32 chick Brinsea heat pad that sits on stilts that you can adjust the height as they get bigger.

I would take her out, she'll start to get hungry and thirsty in there. When you open the incubator, mist all the eggs with warm water to help the humidity come back.
