That's the way I took it. It was a double yoker that produced one black and yellow chick.

That's awesome! I've heard of double yokers, but never thought that healthy chicks could actually be produced with no deformities or something. I agree with everyone else....PICS! PICS!

where is Pax? Why was it only a post about a double yolker hatching and no other updates or details? I'm thinking (despite my hoping...) its only 1 chick too, since there haven't been any new updates or pics...too bad. I've wanted to read about successes with double yolkers too.

If a double yolk egg hatched, you could very easily have two different colored chicks. They could even be from different fathers. Because each yolk is technically a different fertilized zygote/egg.

I would like a comformation of two chicks or one. This is quite interesting. Pictures would be neat as well.

it's actually more likely for double yolk chicks to be "fraternal" twins, as it's not a case of the zygote splitting, but of two zygotes making it into one package.
