Should I get rid of it?

If you are for sure it's dead.
Are you 110% sure it's dead?

Will it explode?

I candle it yesterday before lockdown everyone was good moving very little bc they have no room I was outside with my other chickens for two hours came back to that

Does "no room" look like this?

Because I am 30 minutes from the end of day 18 (17 for those of you who count day 0)

It sounds to me like your chicken was rather large somehow, and expanded large enough to tear the air sack and crack the egg. I have no idea how this could happen, its just a theory, but hopefully a pro can elaborate more!

Also, without the ability to pressurize it will not pop. I'd say leave it in overnight. Unless you think it could harm your other baby, i would not open the incubator again. (If you do think there's harm you should open before pip)

Ive never heard of this but a quick google seems to match your "i have no idea" breed, but again, shooting in the dark. Fingers crossed things go well, but if you lost one, i definitely hope the second makes it!
I'll be glued to my bator on Friday, but definitely post pictures when the fun starts!

Did you hold it up to your ear to see if there were any tapping noises? If it doesn't smell and it isn't oozing I'd leave it in just to be certain.
