Eggling progress/air bubble?

[findingotis]

Hello TFO,

I'm not sure if I'm being a worry wort or if theres something wrong with this egg. There's definitely a little fella in there wriggling about, but is the white bit above the egg an air bubble? I read on another forum that it's not a good sign so I'm getting a wee bit (very) anxious. Will it affect it's development? Also, how often is TOO often when it comes to candling an egg? I really can't get enough of it :/

Sorry in advance for all n00bish the questions, this is the first time my female had ever laid and they were found on the surface too.

Here's a couple of pictures for reference;

Day 94

Day 104

Also day 104

Thanks for looking

It's hard to tell from these pictures, but when an egg gets closer to hatching that oval will keep getting bigger and working its way down. A couple weeks after it reaches the bottom you will have a hatchling. You can clearly see the baby in the last picture, I would say everything is good so far.
