I am probably just anxious and know not much has happened yet, as I cant see anything in there. The eggs are very light brown and I feel like I can easily see into them. However, as I rotate and turn the egg the air bubble easily moves and tracks to the top of the egg. Is this normal? These are mail order eggs and wonder if they were shaken to much. thanks for looking.
 
No, not normal. That's a displaced aircell. If its really loose it can be a problem. It will decrease your hatch, but you may still get some of those to hatch. I incubate those in egg cartons to try to keep the aircell in the same place, some of them will actually re-attach.
