Please help...we helped our chick out of its' shell and I believe a yolk sac or more may be protrudi

I signed on to this site so perhaps someone can help me do something for my poor chick. I suspect she will die, but can't just sit and watch it without atleast seeing if there is something I can do to help. Last night after over 12 hours of piping in the same hole and no progress my husband helped the chick out of the egg by taking away some shell around the top of the egg. The chick moved and kept piping but eventually my husband had to open the membrane and then the chick pushed out. There was what I think a yolk sac present, I read some posts last night and put the chick back in the incubator with a wet paper towel. This morning the chick is still alive, resting then awake and chirping, but the towel was bloody, I replaced the towel but it is bloody again and their appears to be a coiled mass, which I am suspecting is intestine? I gave her a few drops of water but don't know what else to do.
I don't have the nerve to cull her. Can someone give my some suggestions to make her more comfortable. Should I put her on dry paper towels or wet. Should I give her sugar water. Please help. This is our second batch of eggs, the first batch did not hatch due to the incubator. We have one healthy chick and then this.

Sorry, there really isn't any thing you can do except wait. When you help them out too early, the yolk is not absorbed. It depends how much is not absorbed. If it's just a bit, it'll pull through, if it's good sized, only time will tell. Each one is defferent. I've had some pull through, some die. Your's sounds pretty bad, could you post a picture? Not sure what to think of what you described as "intestines" but otherwise I've heard of others that tie it off with dental floss or something silmilar so that the chick has to absorb less. I have never tiried this myself though.

that thing that was attached to the egg and attached to the chick right under the vent is its umbilical cord you shouldn't help a chick out of an egg that is the last resort i did the same thing you did my first hatch and learned the hard way it can take up to a day and sometimes longer for a chick to hatch completely out of the egg just hope for the best and the chick will do what it wants to do but definitely give it some drops of water and we'll see what happens could post a pic of the chick and
