Wow! That's incredibly good luck!!!! I get plenty of 100% hatches with my own or local eggs, but shipped eggs are almost always disappointment. It's rare that an egg will arrive without a rolling (completely detached) air cell. Several eggs get ruptured yolks (candle completely dark throughout). Sometimes we get eggs with partially attached air cells & those can firm up after a few days. Those are the ones that will develop and may hatch.I just had a 100% hatch with shipped eggs last month. 12 out of 12 hatched. Just a week earlier from the very same breeder and same flocks, I had received a scrambled shipment that 5 out of 12 hatched. It's really a matter of luck sometimes with the postal service.
