When I set 40 eggs in the incubator and I candle them (backlight the egg to view the embryo) at one week, I may have 99% fertility. That doesn't mean that 99% will hatch. I may only end up with only an 80% hatch (germination, if you will) rate. In other words, you can't judge the process based on half of the necessary events.
