Is this chick shrink wrapped? It’s still alive and has poked this hole in the shell, but there’s a gap between the shell and the thick membrane, can’t see any chick, but it’s peeping and making progress. Day 20 Swedish flowers from my own flock. None of the other eggs have pipped yet.
Thank you!

I would give him 24 hours from whenever you first noticed the pip before you do anything. He's pipped through the shell which means he's not at risk of suffocation and your humidity is high enough were you shouldn't need to worry about shrink wrapping. He still needs time to finish absorbing the yolk and position himself for zipping. It's just a hard waiting game.

Ok thank you! It’s just not the usual pip with visible beak that I’m used to. Hope she breaks through and makes it, thanks!
