Does candy received from hatching eggs diminish?

It seems to me that the higher level I get (I'm now level 28), the less candy on average I get from hatching eggs. I remember usually getting in the high teens, and over twenty wasn't uncommon when I started. My wife even once got 30 candy from hatching an egg.

However, more recently it seems I'm lucky if I get more than 10 candy. Usually it's 6 - 10. I'm not sure if this is just bad luck on my part, a patch that lowered candy received, or that candy diminishes with the more eggs you hatch, or higher level you are.

Has anyone else noticed this trend? Or do the RNG gods just hate me?

I have noticed this too, and it's really, really noticeable actually. Hatched 2 bellsprouts in a row and got maybe (I didn't actually count) 15-20 candies total.

Edit: when I was exactly level 20 and 21, once got 25 candies from 5km egg and 32 dratini candies from a 10

I'm pretty sure its just random. Im level 26 and my last three eggs had candy of 23/21/27. I remember getting my first Pikachu in an egg a few levels back with only 9 candies.

I agree with likely randomness.

Yesterday I was quite surprised to get a Chansey from an egg, my very first, and I got 31 candy with it. Last week I hatched a Hitmonlee and got 17 candy. These are my two most recent unique additions, so I am certain about the amount of candy. My level is 27.
