Is this a blood ring or bad egg?

Hi, someone told me this was a bad egg and I should discard it.
It's still in the incubator, day 8. I thought maybe blood ring but the embryo is still moving quite a lot. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Just attached some. I attached a file of a video the first time but I cant see it on there.

is the embryo itself moving? Or are the contents of the egg moving around like slushy?

It is only moving where the embryo is. To me it looks like the embryo moving but I am new to incubating. This is only me 2nd time. Can I post a video?

There's visible veins. Leave it in and candle again in four or five days if you're worried.

I’m not sure how to post videos on this site sorry! ! Tbh, it does look a little dodgy to me but photos are hard to tell the story 100% especially if you think there’s movement..

If you’re in doubt, leave it another day or two and recheck to be safe..
Maybe have a YouTube search of chick embryo movement at day 8 and see if it’s similar to yours also? Might give you a better idea if it’s bad or not?
