Need help about this pipped egg 🥚

[ElfenLied89]

Meet Hestia. Yesterday was hatch day, and Hestia did not pip at all. Concerned she was gonna lose air, I gave her a little safety hole and stuck her back in. She had already internally pipped, and was wiggling away.

This morning she hadn't even pipped yet. 3pm she had a teeny pip hole. 7pm she had made that hole a teeeeeny bit bigger. Now? Hole is bigger, but not by much. It's been almost 9 hours. She is chirping away still.

At what point do I step in and help? I keep checking to make sure I hear peeps. Idk if they are help me peeps or her talking smack bc she is having a hard time.

I would assist after 24 hours, did she hatch on her own?

She ended up needing assistance. The membrane was completely white and dry. She seems to be doing well.
