This is pretty wild!!<\/strong><\/p>\n A woman in Japan<\/a>\u00a0was given one dozen eggs by\u00a0her Mom. She hard-boiled all twelve of them and found out that each egg had TWO\u00a0YOLKS!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n YES! Every single egg in the entire dozen had TWIN YOLKS inside!!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n How is this possible?? Well, there’s an explanation a commenter made over at Serious Eats<\/a><\/em>\u00a0that makes a lot of sense:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n “Hens lay on average, one egg every day. WOW!!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n And\u00a0RocketNews24<\/a><\/em>\u00a0reports that:<\/strong><\/p>\n “Egg farmers can tell whether or not a hen has laid a double-yolk egg without cracking it open. The shells of double-yolk eggs tend to be longer and more pointed than those of single-yolks, and the two yolks can also be seen when using a light to inspect the contents of the egg without cracking it.<\/p>\n Double-yolk eggs taste just the same as single-yolks ones<\/strong>, and some people actually feel lucky to discover one. Not everyone is left with such a positive impression, though. Some shoppers find them kind of gross, and so to avoid shocking their more sensitive customers, egg farmers generally remove them from any batches<\/strong> before they\u2019re shipped to market…”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n But they didn’t in this case!!<\/strong><\/p>\n Have you ever seen a double-yolked egg before??<\/strong><\/p>\n What about a TRIPLE-YOLKED one<\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/a>\n If REAL multiple-yolked eggs aren’t your thing, maybe you’d prefer THIS TOY<\/a>!\u00a0http:\/\/amzn.to\/1FlumEt<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
When they are new to egg-laying, they do so less frequently, probably because their bodies arent quite in sync yet. <\/span>
The egg production doesn’t always happen at the same rate as shel<\/span><\/span>l production. That means, if they aren’t laying (i.e. making shell) as fast as the egg part is being produced, their eggs are going to be double-yolk. This means they will lay bigger eggs.<\/span>
Since eggs are sorted by weight, Jumbo eggs tend to have double-yolks more often.”<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
