Triple yolk...SMH

[gimmie birdies]

Today's egg- from my sapphire gem. This is just a double though.

I set it because it looks like if it is double, both ends are large, hence enough room for 2 chicks in one egg. day 2.

The dark brown one looked not fertile. The others are just incase it hatches... here is the double candled day 2

I will not take as many pic, but will update. prolly will not make it past day 10 but we will see...

Maybe this one will have a better product... I love this Sapphire gem egg, and the dad is an OE. it is a double..

Do you just constantly run an incubator?

Just like a TV channel you don't like just change the channel... don't try and control it. That says more about you than the channel you don't like...

I set some egg a couple days ago and I knew this one was a double yolked egg...

I candled today, this is not a full day 3, but I had it with other eggs, I questioned if this one was fertile, I still don't know that, but as I was candling to see if it was fertile, I saw the yolks are least darker..(more pics soon hubby is in room where eggs are developing...shh!) I was turning the egg to see the 2 yolks and saw a 3rd one. I know as far as doubles most don't even make it to day 10. So this one I am not holding my breath on, but if it does develop I will get an eggtopsy photo of 3 yolks later. If it is not fertile, then I will get a triple yolk photo out of it.

(Egg is from a local farm, not from my coop.)

Are you positive it's a double yoker?
I've had hens sit on double yoker eggs and it usually never turns out well...

This is so cool! Is a triplet even possible?

Wow, I've gotten double yolk eggs before but never triple! Will follow along to see what happens

I wouldn't get your hopes up...
I once had a double yoke egg that was going to hatch, it got right up to the due date but it didn't make it, we didn't know it was a double.
When we opened the deceased egg there were two perfect little chicks in it, one black, one white.
They didn't make it...

I am curious how that unfertile one will effect the others.
You can upload a video by putting it on YouTube and posting a link - I don’t think you can post it here directly

My sis posted a YT video here directly, and it worked!
