My Rhode Island Red Layed this...

[Wee Farmer Sarah]

Definitely a double yolker. I got them last summer when my RIR pullets were laying their second month. I've got several this year about a month after my BR pullets started laying. They are just as tasty as the single yolk eggs however, I only use the round eggs for poaching. It will stop after a little while.

@HAPPYCHICKENLADY17 Right?

when my hens first started laying i had huge eggs like that, all were double yokes.......

@Wee Farmer Sarah ah, I see.

@HAPPYCHICKENLADY17 ooh, my chicken has layed two double yokes atm, how many did yours lay at 4 months?

I had one that large from my Plymouth Blue Rock and it was this triple yolk. Her next egg was a double yolk. Made for a full breakfast for the two of us.

@Tillie43 WHAAAAT?!? That is the coolest thing!

Wow! That just might be a triple. It's 2x bigger than my Jersey Giant's eggs, they average 70 grams (about 2.5 oz). Poor Scarlett!

I Didnt keep track, and it was hard cause i sold some dozens and gave some dozens away, and they would say, hey that large egg was a double yoke, never had a triple...oh my!!!!

@HAPPYCHICKENLADY17 ah, okay. I’d lose track, too XD

Actually, the egg was an egg in an egg, so a double-shelled egg.

Interesting Fact: it also broke another egg... oof... also, Scarlett is my Rhode Island Red, one of my two pullets at the moment laying eggs. One more thing, it’s exactly 3 and a half inches longView attachment 1907065 View attachment 1907061

Most likely a double yolker.

@SurferchickinSB thanks, but it wasn’t. It was a double-shelled egg.
