Turns out I need to stop doubting olive eggs when I can't see into them very well, so far 5 have hatched. The white egg and Marans have also hatched.

Third and last September batch is down to I think it was 5 eggs on day 10, rest were clear because mr rooster still doesn't fancy all the hens in that pen.
