Goose Egg Viability

[Saxophonetiff]

First time incubating a goose egg. I am not confident in this egg. It is day 9. I cannot see any veining but the shell is also a lot thicker than a chicken egg.
Is this still viable?

Looks rotten to me.

Are there any other indicators that I could check for, without cracking it before I toss it?

@FoodFreedomNow You know way more about incubation than I do. Do you have any ideas?

When in doubt, I leave the egg until the next candling. By then, its status should be clearer.
