EE started laying, 1/3 of them are double-yolked... Problem in future?

EE started laying at 23.5 wks (~10d ago).
She has so far laid 3 double-yolked eggs which are about three times the size of the normal eggs she's laid (store bought XL size). Total of 8 eggs so far.

Will this be a problem for her laying in the future since the eggs are so large? Or is it just her cycle getting regulated?

She's one of our smallest birds too...

One of the double-yolked eggs is lower right

Here is the girl, Ari

WOW beautiful girl.
I wish I had a double yolker hen. Seriously I am trying to image twin development!!

Don't worry, it will all settle down in a few weeks. It is perfectly normal for various sizes and shapes to be laid at the start, while her reproductive system gets used to egg production. Yo might get some teeny tiny ones, and some with no shells, or with lumpy shells too.

Kind of makes your eyes water a bit though at the size of some of the large ones!

Thanks for the answer, we sure hope so. We've heard that some birds or breeds tend to lay double-yolked throughout life, like RIR, etc.
