I've been following this on youtube again this year
Four eggs laid and only three hatched up until today and then something strange happened

First mum seemed to be trying to open the egg, a hole appeared in the shell when she was pecking at it,
Dad came with food and egg was left to one side, when feeding had finished Mum started n the egg again, opened it and flew
off with the dead featherless chick, came back a while later and took the shell away

This starts at around 8,27 am , the carrying off is about 10.19 am
