Pullet Eggs - Wish she'd stop doing this.

[Fred's Hens]

Well, this ain't my first rodeo, as my friends say in Texas,

but this is my first time with this strain from Meyer. It happened a lot with ISA's too, but it stopped much sooner. Don't see as much of this the more traditional lines.

I had a hen that was a JG mix and she laid one of those every week I still felt bad I just got one from my barnyard mix. I wish that there was something I could do but it does happen feel sorry for the hen that lays them.

I have a leghorn that lays at least two a week like that and she is six months into laying . Every single one of them is a double yoker. I feel so bad for her but as everyone else says there is nothing I can do about it.

I have a red sex-link hen that has laid at least 2 double yolks a month ever since she started laying last year. Usually the yolks were smaller then normal, but the latest one was massive and each yolk was the size of a regular yolk. Ouch.... Lol

Ouch!! I've had a few double yolkers that I thought were big but nothing that compares to that! Extra treats for the girl who had to push that out!!
