Is it a double yolker?

They'll very likely die by the second week during to limited room or they'll both make it to pip but only one can pip correctly.

Yes but I was watching a video on an egg developing and it also looked like it had two chicks in it, the lady described it as being the stomach and the eyeball area.

So both eggs started with 2 yolks? Or does it just look like there may be two chicks inside? Hopefully just singletons, I’ve never seen a successful twin hatch before (granted i havent searched them out, so I guess it could be possible, but very unlikely!)

There have been a few threads on here about hatching double yolked eggs. It is not that unusual to get one chick out of them though it is also not unusual to get none. It is pretty rare to get two chicks out of them but it has happened. They have to internal pip, external pip, and zip. That can be hard with two chicks crowded in there if they both develop. Often to even get one chick out of them somebody has to help them. It can be hard to determine when to help with only one chick in there, let alone two.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.

So the egg is do the hatch by Tuesday. It looks like it's one bird. Here's 3 that are supposed to hatch by Tuesday.

I posed videos. The egg I thought was two is the yellow chick. Funny she’s super active
