These are silky eggs. these eggs are from a hatchery and dont seem right. They are longer in size than my hens eggs. they are due to hatch friday 21st. There is liquid movement inside when i turn them in the light. Dark part, i think is a chick but at this point there is too much liquid compared to my other eggs. There air sac is there. Will the liquid disappear or are these no good or maybe stopped developing? I reluctantly checked one egg and it was a blob inside. So i dont believe these others are viable eggs. There are 7 eggs this has happened to.
(2 pics have a diamond I drew on them)

The black is rot, they're starting to spoil. It looks like they started and quit pretty early on.

The eggs also look very porous, which is bad for incubating eggs. They pick up a lot of bacteria and dirt through the shell that way. Looks like the hatchery gave you some poor quality eggs.

So sorry, I hope you have better luck on your next hatch!

they came really dirty. i will never order from that person again. My hens eggs are hatching great!
 
I had used my roosters eggs, and had really great hatch rates when he was alive, to when I set his eggs 2 weeks after I put him down. The older and egg- and in this case the older the fertile...
 
I think the 2nd egg might be ok, but that is just MY opinion. Dirty eggs are never good to use in an incubator. I would send them back in future if that happens again. I would recommend getting the brinsea disinfectant

This can be used to clean your incubator, but also if you follow the instructions on the bottle and water it down, it can be used as an egg wash.
 
I'm not sure where you got you silkie hatching eggs from but I ordered me some hatching eggs from Alabama Silkies. They were very helpful and they have quality birds and the eggs when they arrived seemed great!
