What was your hatch rate on your very first try?

my very first hatch i had 20 out of 24 but i pick them up and knew the breeder so i was for sure they were fertile
my first eggs of my own from my ducks i had 7 out of 8 hatch
 
I split 24 picked up (not shipped) eggs with a broody Marans hen. My hatch rate in my new still air Little Giant was 72%. Wilma's rate was 92%. Go figure!
 
1 out of 20

. I don't know why though.
 
My first try was 0% - out of 9 eggs, two were infertile. The other 7 died right before/during/after Lockdown. Two of which had clear defects to them, two died after pipping into the aircell, and the other 5 were either turned preparing to pip or were just before turning and didn't.
