Double yolker

[mucduc]

I think I have a hen that lays double yolks. I have gotten 4 in a row so far. Not sure which chicken since there are 20 of them that lay brown eggs. But since I am only getting 1 brown egg aday right now I know its only coming from 1 chicken. Need to find her ha.

Not complaining. Just think it's fun

Are your birds young? Double yolk eggs (or even triple) are very common with new layers (and those coming back into production) as the system is not yet running smoothly and the release of more than one yolk at a time occurs pretty frequently.
