A double yolker is a sign of good luck. A hen has to eat four pounds of feed to produce a dozen
eggs, and double yolk eggs will only bear dead twins. Mrs. Elsie Joubert in East London, who in May of
1999 found an egg inside another egg while preparing her breakfast. She
became famous because of her find, and her specimen -- called a freak of
nature by the Nulaid company -- was sent to be tested. Tested for what, it
didn't say. No-yolkers are called "dwarf", "wind" [or, more commonly, "fart"] eggs. Such an egg is most often a pullet's first effort, produced before her laying mechanism is fully geared up.

I used to love it until I bought eggs from WalMart and 11 out of 12 had double yolks...That kind of freaked me out, I mean 23 yolks for the price of 12? Great and all, but what the heck is wrong with these chickens?!?! I'm not such of a fan of it anymore.
