triple yolk egg

[clintschickens]

i got some chicks a few months ago and they have just started to lay when this morning i had an egg that was rather large. i broke it open and there it was three yolks. i have never seen this and nobody has heard of it. is it common? what does this mean?

It means you will have three years of good egg production.

Congrats!
The most I've ever had was a couple... each of my hens has laid a double yolker or two before.

I don't know - but it sounds yummy!

The yolk is always my favorite part of the egg.
