Twins anyone?

[rookiechick]

Is it possible for two chicks to hatch from one egg and survive? This is my first hatch and upon candling one of my eggs we discovered two very active chicks in one small white egg. This was at day 7 and day 10. Today is day 19. Does anyone have any insight?

Yes, actually! Someone here did help in a hatch of twins and even has it documented on Youtube.

Okay, what do you mean "help?" Is there something that I need to do to assist their hatch?

Read this https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=104245 very interesting. This is the member that had the twins and posted it on youtube.

Chickintexas,
I tried the youtube link without success (blank screen.) Can you try it again?
