All the eggs look fine but one my 2 wk old eggs started getting a slight amount of mold on it. I just wiped it off. Does this mean the egg is bad? Or is the container bad? Anything I should or can do?

Sometimes they leak and go bad but I have never had any of mine get moldy, give it the sniff test. If its bad you will probably know soon enough

I have heard of moldy eggs hatching. I would separate any moldy eggs from those which have not gotten moldy, just to be on the safe side.

That way, you can confidentially let things go a little longer to see how things go.
