I have received a couple shipments of eggs, the first I didn't candle right away, just put some under a broody and some in the bator. Now it is day 4 and I candled them. There is one that has a bubble that follows around the egg when it is turned. Is it scrambled? So then I candled the shipment I just got today. There an egg in there that does the same thing. Are these eggs ruined?

I have been told this is just a detached air sack and you can sometimes hatch them if you put them pointed (small) end down in an egg carton. Just tip the carton (or the egg) from side to side to turn it. This is to keep the air at the big end where it belongs. It is worth a try. I had one of these hatch myself.
