once the egg has a position its incubating in don't turn it at all and and once the embryo is at a certain stage it can be life threatening to the embryo to candle it, the bright light and movement can make the new baby tear delicate blood vessels.
i have never hatched crestys but i would imagine its the same .
the dark splodge you can see freegeeky very well could be a baby starting to develop
