It might be infertile, but wait another week or so to be sure. It's very hard to tell much at this stage, especially in eggs that aren't white.
The egg looks pretty porous as well. It might not end up being an issue, but sometimes it is.

Warning: I AM NOT AN EXPERT. I AM NOT EVEN DONE WITH MY FIRST BATCH YET. I JUST STARTED A THREAD JUST LIKE THIS ONE ON DAY 3
I did the same thing a few weeks ago, the eggsperts said to not candle until around day 7, because 1) at this stage you can barely see anything and 2) the life is very fragile at that point. My egg at day three looked very similar to yours:

Then at day seven this:

Day 14:

and now this:

So the conclusion is that it is too early to tell but it could very well be ok. I thought mine was dead at day three but it wasnt.

One more question? Will an egg survive if out of the incubator for 10-20 min? My friend left her egg out on day 3 (we are hatching together) for around 17 min. Will it die or be ok

Check back at day 7. If it's colder than the rest and still looking like that then its infertile and not going to hatch.
Good luck!
