Is this egg dead?

[Coffgirl]

I have been incubating this egg for 19 days now, locked at day 15.
So it's over due.
but I candle the egg and saw it's in this state.
I'm not sure if it's still alive..

i currently have two eggs in this situation. i still don't know if they will hatch, but i am hoping that they will. i would just leave them in any ways, because mine hatched on day 20. good luck!

Give it till day 21 if you're not sure. Can you see or feel any movement?

so, one of the eggs I was talking about just piped. I am guessing that yours will hatch. I have a feeling.

Thank you I have a bit more hope now.
but I don't feel or see any movement or any peeping.
but I'll wait for a few days.

apparently I found something different when I candled it today compare to that second pic..

I saw something small and black round thing near the air sack..
but this pic didn't have that thing.

I really hope it's chick head that's ready to hatch soon.
I didn't take a pic because I did a quick candling and put the egg back in incubator.

still don't see any movement or peeping but I can see something change.

an update..
yeah it's dead..
I just buried it today and before that I cracked it opened to see when it died.
it died really early as it's not even formed in to a chick properly.

maybe because one day it was too hot and I wasn't home and the temperature went to 40 c sometimes..

good that I already fixed how to control it to not overheat like that again.
my incubator is DIY one it was really hard to control the temp at first when I didn't have the thing that shut the power when the heat reach to some point, but I have it now.

so I only have 4 eggs in there left.
2 eggs should hatch today from my schedule but they seem to be late again.
but I candled them for the last time I finally see the air sack increase their size a lot.
so I really have high hope for these 2

and another tho are new comer age 4 days and they're fertile.
