My understanding is this kind of thing is more common in birds that recently started laying. Combine that with the fact that birds tend to be kept with other birds of similar age and it’s not uncommon for a package of eggs to have either no double yolks, or multiple instances of double yolks. I’ve never seen a dozen eggs with just one double-yolk.

That makes sense, my two laying hens are the same age, while my other hen and my roo are younger. And I’ve only been getting eggs from them for a month or two.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it’s too interesting, it doesn’t belong. If it’s not interesting, it doesn’t belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh… what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don’t spam.
