INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

So, interestingly, I set-up my first lockdown last night. I wanted to make sure I had everything perfect. I had cut up an egg carton and cleaned it, planning on hatching my eggs with them upright due to them being shipped and 2 having detached, saddle shaped air cells. I candled again for the "fluid" I saw earlier in the air cell and discovered that its a shadow that changes when I move the light across the egg. Not sure what I'm seeing, but there isn't much I can do at this point. After determining likely pip point and marking it on eggs, I decided to just lay them on their sides for the night and see what happened. This morning is official lockdown and I candled once more and discovered that my saddle shaped air cells fixed themselves! They look beautiful! I'm excited and a little hopeful about that.
One question, the bottom of the eggs, opposite the air cell still have a little area I can see veining in and the chick doesn't come all the way down. Is that normal for day 18 or are they behind a bit?
Thanks for all your help!
I am glad your aircells have improved. :fl. For your hatch.
 
of course!
