New to all of this, done heaps of research but starting to have concerns
I have eggs in my incubator at different stages (I have a seperate Hatcher)
One egg (I have no pictures of) seems undeveloped. Day 33, no pipping and veins are still visible, however lots of movements from the little fella

the second concern is the egg picture below, is this twins?? I recognise that they can be difficult to hatch but I can’t tell if they are twins or not? I haven’t seen anything like it.

From the looks of the second egg in this picture you do have twins.
From what I have been reading (here in BYC), it is very difficult for twins to make it to hatching, but it does happen.
Just proceed normally with your incubation.
Twins usually need to be assisted at birth, and there are articles and threads which cover this aspect.
I apologize, but I personally have no experience with hatching myself. I just know that if you research the Incubating and Hatching articles you will find in depth information.
