Percent of Hatches?

Most hatches from my own birds is 90%+. Shipped eggs, I have gotten anywhere from .05% (yes that is 1/2!) to 77%. Most are about 50%. 50% is a 'good' hatch on shipped eggs.

Sometimes, like monarc said, you have to get eggs shipped, to get the breeds that you want. If I were to rely on eggs I could get locally I would just give up.
 
Just had a hatch rate of 66% from my own home eggs. Last year got eggs in the mail and only had a 30% hatch. I went by the book, but it turned out most of them were not fertile.
