* Anyone have experience with a twin egg and hatching it?
Here's what I've done so far:
I took a heating pad and put a sterile drape over it. I put on sterile gloves and sterilized the tweezers. I put the twin egg on the sterile drape and started working my way into the egg.
One of the twins has not absorbed the yolk and there are still some veins, so I put organic unrefined coconut oil (doubt it matters what coconut oil it is but just in case) on it to make sure that it is still moist or whatever you want to call it (I hate that M word but not sure how else to say it). I put it back in the incubator to wait for that chick to absorb the yolk.
Both of the chicks are breathing and moving perfectly fine. I have no concern there whatsoever.
If you need me to answer any type of question, just put them down below and I will answer them as fast as possible. I have 29 other eggs that are trying to hatch.
* Should I put this egg in something so that the twins siblings don't attack it?
**And before anyone wants to be negative about us incubating a twin egg, we did not know that there were two yolks in this egg it was the same size as she always lays**
I was asked to create this thread so I'm doing as I was told... Thank you for your help

that made me chuckle. Sounds like some cheer you'd hear at a sports game.
Keep us updated on your twins, I don’t think I’ve seen any twins on this site yet...
