helped a chick... goop hanging out of it...what to do??? HELP!!!

[ma2babygurl13]

So I had a chick start to hatch...I waited and waited and waited, and after OVER 48 hours of absolutely NO progress (the pip was in the middle of the egg) I decided to help it out... It was partially shrink wrapped inside the egg but I was able to get it out and cleaned off... there is a clearish goop hanging where I'm guessing the yolk sac should have been... but it isn't yellow like yolk, it is like clear mucous... and there was poo inside the egg with the chick (it is also stuck to the clear goop... right now I have the chick under the lamp (at about 95 degrees) and left the goop and the remaining part of the shell (the goop is attached to it) on the chick... what should I do, leave it be and hope for the best, or gently snip away at the goop leaving only a small amount on the chick??? PLEASE HELP!!! I know it is a shot in the dark even saving the poor lil fella, but I have to try!

Edited to add, this one was actually due on the 20th... and that is when it pipped...

i would wipe it off if it isn't bloody and lay the little fella in the warm brooder and see what happens.I did that with 1 of mine never thought the thing would make it.He was really sad looking and 12hr later he was up and around

I will try, it is actually one of the eggs I got from you....

how did the rest do

 

[ma2babygurl13]

Only 3 made it to hatch day...he was the only one that even pipped

giving the others another day before I check them out.... I ended up with 8 bloodrings and one that didn't develop...this was my first attempt with shipped eggs, I didn't know how to check for broken airsacs, or scrambled yolks and I only let them sit out for like 6 or 7 hours before I put them in the bator.... so I'm guessing that is what happened.

I am sorry not sure what happened.Lots of things could have made a difference.Sounds like they all were fertile.Temps or humidity off,candling etc.
