We have this one Delaware that lays double yolk eggs quite frequently. Her eggs are a light brown/ tan.

Right now I'm beaming with pride for my girl, Bandit, for laying this thing! I'll try to get a picture of her tomorrow. She's beautiful! She has just the sweetest face. And that darn girl will dart in the back door every chance she gets then makes a bee line for the dog food bowl and goes to town! She eats faster than the dog. Maybe that's the secret... Purina One Sensitive Systems. She's the only one who eats the dog food. Hmmmm!

I used to think it was neat to have such big eggs. That is until I read that it can lead to a prolapse, then I thought better of it. It is cool though but I wouldn't encourage it.

I'm not sure how one encourages a hen to lay multiple yolk eggs. I was making a joke about the dog food being why she laid it.
