HELP!! Twin embryos in a Blue Silkie egg - Page 9

     I once had a hen with 11 eggs under her hatch out 12 healthy chicks. I would not have knowingly set a double yolk egg. I noticed 1 egg was a little longer than normal, but not enough to be a double. I was obviously wrong but all 12 chicks were healthy.

Wow! I'm impressed. I had 2 really large Legg'ern RIR mix eggs in my 'bator. On candling one proved to be sterile. Haven't candled the other yet.

There's a subscribe button top and bottom of the thread. It saves bumping this up to the top of the pile.
