shipped eggs question

I'm getting some shipped eggs soon and was wondering if someone can post a picture of what the air sack should look like and perhaps of one that is detached? Is it possible to candle dark chocolate eggs? Also, is it possible to tell if egg is developing on just weight loss or do infertile/ rotten eggs lose weight too? Thanks!
I can't post pics. But the air sac should be about the size of the top of the egg. It should be perfect circle. You can do a search on here. Lots o pics. Dark eggs are very difficult to candle.

Day 16. 4 are growing well. What special care do I need to take with egg that has saddled air sac during hatch? At what point do I step in?
 
I just put my 15 shipped eggs in the incubator. Most of them are the chocolate eggs that will be hard to candle but I did get 4 blue eggs. I hope I get some of them to hatch.

This is an air cell in an un-incubated egg, very small and tight in the wide end of the egg, doesn't move around at all when you turn the egg.



This is a detached air cell in a shipped egg un-incubated as well, the air cell rolls all around the inside when you turn the egg.



Hope you can see them they are the slightly darker rounded spots.
