badgerbluebadger Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 p.s I am still feeling bad for collecting her eggs - they both pop out of the Eglu door in the morning to feed and as soon as I go over to the egg port Sam comes back in and makes a little noise when I take her eggs - is this normal?

RubyReckless Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Triple!?!?!? Wow, I've only ever seen a double. Ida lays them a lot - i didn't even know triples were possible! Our older girls' eggs are always now 75g for a single and 95g plus for a double. I shudder to think what a triple would be... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mostin Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I didn't know they could do triples either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruth1 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Wow, did you get a pic before you ate it????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerbluebadger Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 I gave the eggs to my mother-in-law at the week end and she came running to me with the egg cracked in a glass - no pics but yep Sam did it and she is still very young. If I get it again I will get a picture. It was all yolks and hardy any white! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 It does happen but quite rare. The record for the most yolks in an egg is, I think, 9! (not from anyone on here though!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I dunnoSnowy , I think Eglutine's Dixie Chick could manage it after I had a few looks at the egg leader boards! ouch! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
