I've seen this before and I have no idea what causes it. The last couple of mine with it did manage to hatch, though I think I had to assist them.

Interesting....
If you candle from the top what do you see. Sometimes the angle makes thwm look off. Is that chick still moving? Never heard of a air cell moving like that unless it was detached, which even getting them from a friend and a car ride pe ding on how long and ruff could detach an aircell..

They actually only traveled a short 5ish minute walk so I don’t necessarily know if that caused it or not. I can’t tell if the chicks alive because if I don’t hit the egg in the light right I can’t see nothing at all. It seemingly has its normal air sack and the larger air sack on the side. Here’s a couple more photos.

Today is only day 19 for them so I guess it’s just a waiting game for now

If you hatch them the conventional way, on their sides, it may be a good idea to position them so the air cell is at the top.
It will help your chicks as they hatch!

Since today is day 19. It may just be a abnormal large aircell. I have seen mine not as big but get larger on one side of the egg instead of just the top like normal. I would wait an see. Keep an eye on it at hatch day.

The chick is alive!! I was able to charge one of my bright flashlights and I saw movement!I think a couple of the eggs are trying to internally pip too so i’m going to leave them all alone and see what happens.

Wishing you all the luck in the world.
