Yeah, the one's that glow yellow with no veins are infertile. They usually take quite a while to get noticeably bad outside because of the very reduced amount of air to make bacteria. Eggs are porous and oxygen does get in, but it takes a while to look bad. Pretty soon (if not already) you will notice it having a different scent than the other good ones, even though it might still "look" pretty good. Still, as long as it isn't nasty yet and OBVIOUSLY bad, or jeopardizing any of the other eggs nearby, keep it until there is NO question at all that it is no good. Just don't let it foul the good air in the small container if it gets anything close to being that bad. Again, you will learn what the weird "musky" smell of a bad one smells like compared to the good ones even if they don't outwardly look so bad yet.
