Have you candled the eggs? You might see some movement in there.

out of 8 eaten till now only one has a single yolk

@chooks4life Even better wishes to you :)

@ cluckcluckluke I have eaten 5 of those and till now all are double yolkers

cool, thank you for the answers, I can imagine why it would be a negative trait. Maybe this person encouraged this trait in his breed.. idk cause he had around 300 eggs (I bought 2 dozen ) with him which he was selling.

I bought these double yolker eggs from someone who says all the eggs have two yolks, and yes all have two yolks. Now I searched a lot but it seems its only a malfunction that a hen lays two yolker eggs... so the question is how does all his hens lay two yolked eggs?

Hello katsdar :) Good to hear from you. And 'yum yum' the turkeys, I plan to raise some for meat too but I have space problems right now :( My chicken are doing good too, the chicks I hatched had started laying but are not good layers, the crossing didn't go so good.

Thankyou for the reply. I had read somewhere that some specific traits come from the father and some from the mother. Anyone else want to share experience?

Hello everyone! Is there a general rule for the egg laying traits? Which trait comes from the father and which from mother? I have a local breed GOLDEN (local name) which lays 180-220 medium eggs per year, and another MISRI (local name) which lays 220-260 small eggs. I want to cross breed them...

Bad Bad wound 3D. Good that she recovered! Mine also are laying, one of them got broody but started breaking eggs and pooing over the eggs, maybe she's not yet ready for a long time commitment :P Kat is daring that she give the surgical care to her animals... I gotta learn that (and have the...

that is quite possible actually as this is a fighting breed (ASEEL), but I love'em, I don't let them fight. But they could have....

Hello all Bycers! I have a rooster (who hatched in my homemade incubator ), he is sick nowadays. He stands on Hocks (Kneecaps) of his feet and can't stand on his legs.

Hi all, We have a lot of electricity shortfall in Pakistan. So we have a lot of load-shedding, the electricity runs out for 1 hour after every 2 hours. And at night we don't have power for 5 hours the incubator wouldn't run, thought we had it set up but we changed our mind. Now I have 26 eggs...
