I would give them more time. There have been eggs that truly surprise me. It's only been a couple of weeks. What is the temp you have them at? Is there a bubble at the top of the egg?

Incubate them anyway. I try to candle eggs all the time and I never see anything, but I get babies all the time. I just hatched out two today out of a clutch that I didn't think could possibly be fertile.
