No, I don't think it was due to the humidity. There was no water in the incubator throughout the whole process of incubation and it's not particularly humid here. The other eggs and chicks were fine. And their air cells were growing normally. But - I think there was something wrong with...

Ok, so it didn't hatch. I opened the egg, slowly, just in case it was alive but no, it wasn't. It didn't even try to hatch and I wanted to know why. The yolk was really large and when I took its head out from under the wing I've noticed it was slightly deformed. And the neck was kind of swollen...
