Is it necessary to candle eggs on day 7 or can you just wait until day 14?

I'm new to incubation and have been reading up on what to look for when candling and some articles are saying even if you're unsure if they're good or bad eggs on day 7 then leave them in until day 14 just to be sure, it's day 6 for me now and I'm wondering if I should disturb them tomorrow or not if it's not going to make any difference? I know that bad eggs can burst if not removed but not sure at what point this can happen, would any bad eggs burst before day 14
 
I candle kind of whenever. But under the broody, it was days 6 and I think 18. She was a funny little thing, so candling wasn't a problem.
