you could candle the eggs to see if they are fertile. If you hold a small light up to them you will see red veins if they are fertile. The mold isn't much to wory about. Wipe it off, and/or get some anti foot fungus powder. I have used lotrimin powder with success.
The cracks you describe are a little wierd. Can you post a pic that will show them?
As far as moss for incubation... I love it. I usually use vermiculite but this year I tried perlite. I found that it was too dry and so now I have all of my eggs like yours with a nice moist blanket of moss over the perlite. All look great so far. In the past I have used only moss and it works great as long as you dont get it too sopping wet.
cheers
