As long as you can see em, hear em they should be ok.

Especially if you are sure they are breathing , can see the beak.

They can take over 24 hrs from Pip to Zip.

You will have to use some discretion here

When to assist?
Assisting a chick should be your LAST RESORT

When I get the urge to help, I slap my hand and go away from the incubator for a while. For example, I really want to get that chick out, slap my hand and go to work. 9 hours later, the chick is running around the incubator....Sometimes they do not make it and sometimes I follow the "rules" and assist. About half of the assited chics do not make in anyway tough.
