Omg I need help NOW with my egg!!!

When you candled it was there any movement? Read this guide https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/step-by-step-guide-to-assisted-hatching.64660/ I think you shpupd start at the air cell with a small hole, and start to break away the air cell. Stay in the air cell, do not touch the bird, and stop of you see any blood. Take a pic when you finish breaking away the air cell and post it. I don't think the whole let the fittest survive theory. The circumstances are artificial so if something happens on our account we need to assist and fix it. If its under a broody then sure it makes sense. If it is already day 20, something is wrong. Just break away the air cell, take a pic and post it, and put it back in the incubator. You'll be able to tell if it's alive by then. If you sit around and do nothing, its going to die. The pip hole is in a odd spot too, it could be malpositioned.
I do not think that the other message sent but here is the picture after a drilled hole in the air cell.
