2 egg yokes in 1 egg?? weird stuff?

Question

I just cracked an egg into my saucepan and it had 2 yokes in it??How does that work out??

Answer 1

Same way fraternal twins work out in humans. There are two cells available for fertilization.

You can actually buy eggs that are all double-yolked in some parts of the country. (My dad gets them in PA.)

Answer 2

Twins.  It happens.  

Answer 3

Nothing's wrong with it. Most likely they are twins.

Answer 4

If the egg had been fertile it would or produced identical twin chickens.

BTW: it works the same way with us, except we don't lay the egg and sit on it like a hen :-)

Answer 5

Not weired, fairly common actually.

Bake shops or cake makers prefer them because you can get two yolks for the price of one. You only use two eggs for recipes that call for 4 yolks for example.  

Answer 6

Twins!!!

You got a bonus.

Nothing wrong with it at all.  

Answer 7

It's just twins, and it's totally normal.  I think the record for most yolks in one egg is 7 or 9!

Answer 8

twins!

how cute.
