Two of the eggs I received were cracked during shipment.

I went ahead and used liquid bandaid over the entire cracked areas.

Has anyone hatched cracked eggs before? Is there anything I need to watch for or do?

These are them as of today - day 5.

I try to never set cracked eggs. When I accidentally do or accidentally crack one during turning and found it was cracked during a candling, it's usually quit. I had one recently that hadn't quit early on, but by day 14 it had quit and there was a nasty ring of what I assume was bacteria growing inside. I didn't open it, I just put it in a ziploc and tossed it.

Well first i would talk to the person that shipped them and ask if you can get those two replaced most people that sell egg's will do this. Second you can try but it is a toss up most egg's that get cracked quit early but once in a blue moon they do sometimes hatch so it's up to you and what you want to do?

I had one under a broody that cracked about 5-6 days into incubation. It was pretty bad (althought not as bad as yours). I sealed it up with nail polish top coat and returned it to the nest. The egg hatched just fine. I think I caught it quickly so it didn't have time to take on a lot of bacteria. If yours was pretty freshly cracked it may do OK too. You will need to watch if very closely for rot though and pull it if starts to look bas or smell.
