I think there is only one yolk but well done Popcorn.
I am having a Jelly moment and I am asking "if an egg is a double yolker does that mean that if it hatches there will be 2 chicks" :oops:  :oops:  :?  :shock:  :roll:

i went for double as well, as one of my girls seems to consistently lay doubles, and they are always a bit bigger than the others.
