Is there hope for damaged eggs?

I have been waiting for eggs for a long time now, and was really beginning to wonder why the female never seemed to get any.. Also it made me confused that one day she would look very big and I was sure she was pregnant, and another day I couldn't see anything special on her. I thought I had checked the tank thoroughly for eggs, but I was wrong. This morning I found them all, five in total (the sixth very yellow, didn't look good) inside a bambo stick. The end was so close to the roof, so I never thought she could get in there, but she could.

Just now I moved the egges out, but even though I tried to be very careful, I damaged three of them, maybe even four. Is there still a chance these eggs may survive? For example, the one closest to the camera only has a very small and shallow damage.

I have at least one damaged egg incubating right now. It still looks good so I am going to wait for a while to find out myself. Have you candled the eggs to see if they are good at all anyhow?

I tried to candle them now, but I'm not sure if I saw anything at all in them. So I guess I'll just incubate them for some time now til they get bad or til I can be sure nothing is coming out..
