My goose egg began to hatch and he never finished

Hi there, I have 4 Canadian goose eggs in my incubator and yesterday one of them began to hatch. I could hear him peeping and he created a decent-sized hole, probably the size of a penny. I left him overnight because I didn't want to intervene and when I went to check on him this morning, there was no movement and no peeping. It can take up to 3 days for these guys to finish hatching from pip to completion, but there is no movement and no sound. Is he dead? And will the others begin to hatch soon? I'm very worried. This is about the 28th day since they've been laid.
 
I would enlarge the hole and check on it. If you see blood stop. Otherwise enlarge it enough so you can see it's still alive, slowly help it if necessary and there's no blood.
