Have you ever had a broody with almost ready to hatch eggs and not known about it when said broody was in a spot where you normally gather eggs? Or, if you found a hidden nest, would you collect the eggs and give them to someone without knowing how old they were?

If it was in boiling water, it is probably not alive. I think what you are seeing when you candle is a partially hard boiled egg. Your mom may have heard air escaping from the shell from a small crack in the shell.

It doesn't really seem logical that someone would have mixed up an incubated, almost ready to hatch egg with fresh eggs. Could you candle it and take pictures?
