Will this quail egg hatch?

[mwm715]

My coturnix (with some jumbo heredity, so jumbo browns if you will) just recently picked back up laying after a dry spell and today I found this monster! I stuck it next to a typical size egg I get from them. Will this thing hatch, and more importantly if it does, is it like 99% positive to have defects? Would it be worth the trouble? I have eggs baking now, due on the 9th, so could I just pop it in with them? I’m fairly new and appreciate any help!! Thanks in advance!

I'd hafta try it in the bator. Is there any such thing as a "double-yoker" quail egg?

YES! We’ve gotten two but they still were not near this size lol

Did you candle it to see if it's a double, you might hatch out twins?

If it is a double-yolker - will most probably not hatch.
If not - I don't see a reason why it won't hatch. I measure the eggs in mm, and I am hatching 34mm+ quail eggs without a problem.
