...Getting a double yolk egg is such a fun surprise!<br />It generally happens with young hens who are still maturing because their system is still figuring out the right "timing". Although it can also be a hereditary thing with some hens.Sarahhttp://www.backyardchickenkeeping.com/eggs-meat/hen-eggs/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-56271842551384440982012-08-28T19:09:36.071-07:002012-08-28T19:09:36.071-07:00Wonder if there is a trick to getting more double-...Wonder if there is a trick to getting more double-yolks.

Last week my only layer laid a double yolker and this weekend I cut back the large verbena that was starting to blog our garden gate.

I guess some hens are just born to lay double yokers.Stoney Acreshttp://ourstoneyacres.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-57489724047941092482012-08-27T14:09:23.070-07:002012-08-27T14:09:23.070-07:00I remember getting a lot of double-yolked eggs whe...I remember getting a lot of double-yolked eggs when I was a girl.

The boss lays regularly and she pops out an extra large one fairly regularly, one of them was a huge 3.8 ounce double-yolker - ouch. <br /><br />Did you see Pam Peirce's article in yesterday's SF Chronicle, she did a great piece on growing cool season crops in the Bay Area.Michellehttp://fromseedtotable.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-46718022480939973762012-08-27T10:03:40.437-07:002012-08-27T10:03:40.437-07:00Hi Lisa- I wondered over to your blog from Ravelry...Hi Lisa- I wondered over to your blog from Ravelry and have really enjoyed checking in on your posts - but today I have to ask about that ceramic tray you have your eggs in - very cool- could you share where you found it?
