HELP! Bacteria ''spots'' while candeling

Hi there!  I am incubating my first set of eggs.  I have 14 Polish eggs.  They are on day 11 of incubation and I decided to candle them today.  All of them have the bacteria ''spots'' all over them!  Some are empty and a few have what looks like a floating yoke or dark spot.  What causes the bacteria?  Do you think they have any chance at hatching?

 

I bought the eggs on this website.

 

EDIT: Pics added in post #7

It looks like this, but there is a dark spot in most of them that sort of floats around, let me go see if I can get a pic

I didn't candle them before now.  I wish I had!  I think it may be pourous egg shells, now but I'm still not sure.

Porous eggs can hatch.

I hatched porous eggs before, and they seem to be developing.  Don't sweat it smile.png
