wrinkled eggs

my bearded dragon just laid 13 eggs 1 is nice and firm the other 12 are wrinkled and not sure if i saw red spots in the as my light not very good .I saw a red spot in the firm one. Could it be that the male is just 2 years old and he is not as fertile as an older beardie it's his first mating season. The female is 4 years old and has laid fertile eggs last season with a different male.

Cool. Well if this helps, here are a few piccies of Phoenix's eggs for comparison:

1. Some of the good eggs on the day they were laid (all of these were fertile):




2. The three dud eggs (crushed, oozing yellow stuff, didn't even bother candling them):



3. Eggs started to wrinkle after a couple of days in the incubator:



4. Added some water to the vermiculite and these are the eggs now:



All up, we got 20 good eggs and 3 duds.

I don't think so but I will incubate them just incase. I really don't think there is an embro in them
I was wandering if it had to do with the males age
