Is it possible to tell if these eggs are fertile?

Pictures of two different eggs. I am wondering if it is possible to tell from these pictures if they are fertile. They come from a neighbor with a rir roo and a bunch of barred and white rock hens. I am trying to figure out if there are enough that are fertile that I can hatch them. They were out for a few hours before putting them in the refridgerator. Thanks for any help.

Speckledhen,
Just the person's advice I was hoping for. I had checked out that thread and thought they were fertile but wanted another, expert, opinion. They come from a flock with only one rir rooster I think and probably mid twenties in hens, with that many hens are they still likely to be fertile often? Thanks so much, I am getting really excited about incubating.

So I read through this post and that link and I'd like to ask ifthose of you who felt sure about either or both of these eggs wouldn't mind elaborating on what indicates to you that they are fertile.

This is fascinating, and this would help me immensely to understand.

Oh ptooey....sorry.. I just went back and looked more closely and NOW I can see the exploded blastoderm....Sorry....

Thanks
Susan
