Bloody half hatched chick

[cmwhite23]

One of my hatching babies is half way out of his egg and I noticed some blood coming from inside the egg. Idk what to because this is my first hatch. The little guys been taking all day to come out. Any suggestions?

Leave him be for a while. The blood has to have time to clot. It is not uncommon for a chick to break a vessel and bleed to death. Nature can be cruel.
