Brahma haven't hatched?

So the update atm day 22 about to start, is that the polish from my collection that was 12 hours late hatched, 1 more swedish and one blue laced red wyandotte. There's a buff and blr that look on the verge of hatch. And a swedish who is pipped doing nuttin
 
However, still no brahma. I really don't wanna lose hope in these brahma as the brahma are the only birds my husband picked but my faith in them is waivering tbh
 
Hah I'm on an overnight schedule atm courtousy of husbands ever changing schedule and need for cuddles🙄 hahaha so me and these birds committed for the night. 🤣
 
Holy cow. I must've been mistaken about candling brahma eggs because not a single one of them even has a red ring. All are clear.
The orpingtons 2 have veins for sure. So I'm holding out hope those will still hatch. They were big eggs. The blue laced red more than half completely clear. And 2 had red rings. Basically there's more than a dozen eggs that weren't fertile at all. Which is comforting but frustrating. I guess I need to renew my candling efforts next time so I won't beat myself up so bad. I wonder if my breeder would be willing to give me a free dozen of eggs. 🤔 He's a nice guy and I know it's not his fault. He had 2 roos per coop but he lost more than half his chickens in texas's freeze about a week and a half prior. I imagine his younger roo were afraid to breed the ladies. It's a major bummer we won't be getting brahma but at least we have 18 happy healthy chicks and could maybe get 2+ more.
