Hi, I just got some egg ship to me and they all look pretty rough, all with detached air cells, like it move as i'm rotating the egg, I'm letting it rest and haven't incubate it yet, is there any chance that it'll hatch ?? Here's a picture

Chances are slim but there is a possibility some may still hatch. How were they packed? If the breeder did not pack them well, honestly I would ask for your money back.
Though I have had eggs shipped that were impecably packed (foam, double boxed, padding between boxes, etc) and still ended up with detached aircells. Most will incubate eggs like this upright. Here is some advice on what you can try. Good luck.🙂

All you can do is try, right? Shipping's been very tough on eggs lately (even well-packed ones that haven't traveled far) so be prepared for low hatch rates, even under the best of incubation conditions.

Hoping your eggs beat the odds.
 
try having them upright (fat end up) throughout the incubation. I have to do that with quail eggs with ridiculously saddled aircelled, and had pretty good success...

How did the eggs turn out? What incubation process did you use? I just set my first set of shipped eggs. They are all upright currently on day 2 and no turning yet.

All the egg developed until day 20-23 and died for no reason :((( I dont think it's the seller fault, it's more of the rough delivery
