All you can do is hope for the best. My last batch of 6 piped and hatched on day 19.
4 days now and there doing really well, couple even getting feathers already.

Good luck!🙂 and don't do this:he

The egg shell parts should dry and will eventually come off. If it doesn't, then once it's completely dry you can cut it but far enough away from the body so it can still heal on its own. If you still think it's wry neck once it's completely dry and in the brooder, then there's a few things you can do why it's still early. The first thing you can do is massage its neck to try and loosen up the muscles. I had to do this for one of the chicks I hatched. Another thing you can do is put nutrients/electrolytes into it's water. I got this at TSC. Once I added this to my chicks water and massaged its neck, it made a recovery. I hope yours does too.
