Why would airspace be on the side of the egg?

It is Day 11 and I have been candling all my eggs. Airspace has been at the biggest end of the egg, except last night when I candled one egg, it was on the side of the egg. All of the eggs are in an egg turner. Very weird. What could have caused this?

broken air cell? I know some have still hatched.............

Shipped eggs seem to do that a lot. Detached air cell. If it is doing well so far, it shouldn't cause a problem.

I actually picked these BCM eggs up locally. Would it start out normal and shift like that? The eggs are tricky to candle, but with a very close eye it seems ok.

Thanks for your thoughts.

I had a duck egg recently that was like that. Probably just a misfire. I didn't try to hatch it though. I'd still try to hatch it.
