Keep with it. Add alittle water to the mixture. Not directly to the egg. (warm water would be better then cold.)
Thats what I thought also when I looked at my egg this morning. Then I realised it had hatched and the baby was making its way off across the table.
I would have guess dehydration before anything else.
