nicki9 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Now all hens are laying we have started selling our eggs, and guess what, one of the people my DH sells to has had 2 double yolkers this week. I'm so jealous. I keep keeping the biggest eggs, but as our ranger eggs are all between 80-90g then it's had to determine. No one he works with had heard of double yolkers before . At least she enjoyed them I hope we get one soon though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 That is so frustrating! I always try to keep potential double yolkers. When Little Bo started laying cream eggs (no not the choccy ones ) some of them were doubles, but they weren't very big, so the neighbour had them. He was delighted, I had to grin and pretend to be pleased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 We don't get double yolkers anymore, but I used to notice that they had an almost imperceptible depression in them, like a tiny waist, if you see what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaP Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 We've had one double yolker, from Pansy. She was very clever about it and laid it on pancake day! It was the first time any of us had seen a double yolk egg, and therefore quite an event for us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Buffy laid her first egg yesterday and that was a double yolker. I cooked it for son tonight and he nearly bust something with excitement. He called both sets of Grandparents to tell them what a clever grandchicken they have.
