I suggest you candle a few eggs that have not been incubated, for practice.
If the incubated eggs look the same as the ones that are not incubated, and they still look the same by day 7 to 10, they are probably not developing.

If you decide they are not developing, I suggest you crack each one open to check. Cracking an egg, and confirming that it really has NO chick, can give you more confidence in your ability to recognize such eggs in future. And if you crack one egg with a chick, you will know you were wrong, and can put the rest back in the incubator (that has never happened to me, and I do not expect it will happen to you either.)
