Are speckled eggs harder to hatch? I have Orpingtons. The Blue and Splash eggs are smooth and hatch readily. The Black Laced Silver have various levels of speckling and I do not get as good a hatch rate with them. And the more heavily speckled ones (from one hen) develop but never seem to pip. The center egg in the last pic is a Red Sex-link. But the rest are the Orpington eggs in question.
