Default Eggs on day 4 what do we think

Hi all pebbles laid on Tuesday afternoon. All of her eggs seem to have an air bubble/pocket on them not sure if any look fertile as yet as none seem to have a yolk settled to the bottom as yet although I know it's early days. I think they have started chalking up though. All weighed around 27 or 28 g.

Thanks for looking all opinions welcomed

First one seems to have slightly thicker shell and has a movable air bubble on top of egg (when it was laid it came out with this movable air bubble in it , think this prob infertile)



No2. Has some sort of air bubble on far left of egg that doesn't move.



No. 3 air bubble that doesn't move on far right of egg


No. 4. Small air bubble on far right of egg that doesn't move


Incubating at 31.5 and 80humidity

Just cleaned the eggs a bit very gently and it looks like yolk is settling to bottom in no 2

3 looks like the one to be fertile and maybe 4. 1 isn't fertile and 2 probably isn't.
