Those are healthy eggs I showed from my bator. Your eggs... Look a lot like the duds or failed to hatch eggs I had before, sorry to say.

Are they under a mother duck?
Has she sat religiously?
If those are both yes, I would leave them alone and not bother candling.
Broody hens are extremely successful and they don't have candlers.

Yea I’m afraid so but I have a chicken on hers so hopefully they hatch

If they smell bad, then it typically doesnt matter if the air sac is there.

Not all smell only two so I got rid of them but the others don’t I just can’t see thru the egg just air sac and I’m worried
