The white band around the middle of the egg is called "chalking" and that shows the egg is fertile. Notice in the first picture that the egg is the same color all over, but in the picture with the red arrow, there's a white band around the middle.

Congratulations Wiek. Looks like you might have a few different ones in the second pic. What type of turtle or tortoise is laying for you?
