Guest stb- Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 Had them before but none have hatched although im sure some peoples double yokers will have
OLDYELLOW Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 only seen it twice with a pair of short faced tumblers one egg was smashed which had double yolk and other one egg had two chicks hatch no problem , never seen it in racers tho

pearse1888 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Posted January 28, 2010 you had a pigeon that layed an egg the same size as a chicken egg HAHA :|
Guest Posted January 28, 2010 Report Posted January 28, 2010 you had a pigeon that layed an egg the same size as a chicken egg HAHA :| yes same size as a bantern hen im not joking
Guest IB Posted January 28, 2010 Report Posted January 28, 2010 checked egg today and seems one yoke is fertile should i leave and see if chipps out or should i dump it as the other egg the hen layed is ok thanks scott Our 'Fed winners' video a few years back featured a double-yoked egg hatching out. Neither youngster survived. Much better to ditch this egg now and allow the pair to raise the single 'good' egg.
