Yes.
I candled last night.
A few were infertile but 2 of them had a chick inside! So happy!
There was 1 other egg which was elongated. The air cell was on the side and the inside was all spotty with weird patterns, what is going on in that egg?

Awesome FINGERS CROSSED
...I'm sorry I can't be of any help about the elongated egg.

I moved Pippin to clean the coop.
She looked so mad at me, she stayed there for a bit until a few minutes later.
She exited the coop screaming so I moved her back and she's happy now

Congrats on the 2 growing chicks!
If they were shipped eggs it's possible the elongated egg has a detached or scrambled air cell. I had an egg that looked a bit floaty inside when candled and it didn't develop.
