Candled my white star egg today and theres 2 chicks in there! There not next to each other, 1 is at one side and the 2nd is the other side! Ive been speaking to my vet who hatches hundreds of chicks and shes never heard of this! I will try and get a picture. They are both dancing around and it looks like they have a yolk sac each. Any info will help please x:rolleyes:

Here is a video of twin chicks hatching. From what I've read, they have to be helped out of the egg, which looks like quite a harrowing experience. I've never hatched eggs, but I knew there was a good video out there, so here is one:

Thank you very much for that. Me and my husband watched it. Ive also just seen someone else has twins too on here. My egg is off a realy young chicken, it was only her 5th egg so im wondering thats why as i know your more likely to get double yokes of young chickens. I havent got much hope but im keeping my fingers crossed.. They have a nice size air pocket which is good news.
 
Day 14

Im candling this egg everyday. I know some people wont agree with this but me and my vet want to check there progress every day..

Candled today and both babies are dancing around still.
