yes, that means that egg has started to hatch.  :)

Unless you dropped the lid on it when you were checking to see if anything was happening :D

If it's the same as chicks they can stay in the incubator to dry off, keep warm and get stronger.  Don't be tempted to move them yet. 

This site says leave them there for up to 12 hours.
