More often than not, one if not both chicks die b/c they can't get into hatching position.

Disappointment is what happens when you incubate double yolkers.

Other than the novelty of attempting it there is no good reason to try. It equates to smaller unhealthy chicks if any survive. Double yolk eggs are easy to spot, it's easy to only incubate full size eggs.
