Not an expert but the one on the right hand side looks like it's no good and the white fuzzy thing on the other one should be wiped off. May be fungus/mold. What are you incubating on? Maybe the humidity is too high?

Someone else will come along and help more than I can.

Vermiculite 1:1 water by weight. Yea i think they are no good. Already 3 weeks in and humidity hasn’t gone down.

Your humidity is probably too high. I have seen this happen with high humidity. Although the egg doesn’t look like it’s developing I would still wipe it off and let it incubate. I’ve seen tortoises hatch that at one point had this growing on it.
