Have you calibrated your thermometer? If the temperature is too high in the incubator it could also account for the developement being further along than expected.

Yes it is possible. Eggs can hold temperature very well and it can take hours for the temperature in the centre of the egg to drop. I have candled eggs that were laid in summer, and only sat on at night and when a duck was only in the box laying and they showed greater developement...
