Two yolks

And it’s normal? Poor chicken

Uncommon, but normal. As has been said, more common in high production girls. The fact that it is 100% of her eggs is a bit more uncommon still, in my opinion. Personally, I wouldn't try to hatch any twins from them. I've never seen it work and seen a lot of heartache from the attempts.

Luckily my girls eggs are only made for food and not for hatching. I would imagine that it wouldn’t go so well for one of the yolks in there.
she had only been laying for about 8 months now. I have been blessed with chickens that lay all year round so we have plenty of eggs all the time. But she’s been laying these double yolks for the past 3 months, and now that it’s been a daily thing I was just worried about her. Not knowing much about double yolks but just the size alone. I was concerned about stress for her. I just can’t imagine that giant egg coming out of me everyday and not be stressed

Like a shell inside another shell? What the heck that is crazy

Double yolker. Same questions as @aart has.It happens when two or more yolks are released together, like a glitch in the system which is common with high production breeds and young/old layers.

Us ladies think ”ouch” when we see those huge eggs. I always thought that maybe a daily application of Vaseline or KY jelly would be appreciated. Don’t know if that is advisable tho.
...ouch EVERY day...

I wouldn't be too concerned with her stress or pain. If she appears healthy, then she probably is (others may have more on this subject). We should be careful not to anthropomorphize our chickens. Even if it hurts a bit, it's probably momentary and there's likely not a doggone thing you can do about it. I guarantee you she isn't emotionally stressed, just maybe some 'ouchiness' for a few seconds each day.
