Set eggs 2nd january & candled today see pictures

Ive candled my eggs today at day 7 but they look more like day 3! Is it because there shipped eggs? You can just say see a round circle in the middle. What do you guys think?.

The black dot on the egg is muck!

Sorry the pictures are so big..

Day seven should have lots of movement and "spider-wed" like veins. I can't tell in the pics.

I know that it's hard to tell things from pictures, but when you saw them in real life, did you see any veining at all? In general, at day 7, I've seen veining and sometimes even movement. My EE and BCM were almost impossible to see at all, but then it was just dark.

I am wondering if maybe you should hang tight til day 10. If you don't see anything definitive then, then make a decision.

I am soooooo not an expert, but I would not be too encouraged if they were mine.

I would, for sure, keep them going. Don't give up.
