Clearly Japanese radiation.

And they're all happy about it. They've gone mad.

Blech. I cracked open an egg once that had two yolks in it. I couldn't bring myself to eat it.

Just grossed me out for whatever reason.

That had to hurt coming out...

I've seen multiple yolks, but never a full shell inside, interesting. We had chickens growing up, the most I saw was 3 yolks in one egg.

That's actually more common than you think. I remember an occasional batch of eggs where almost all of them had double yokes.

Yup, lived on a egg-layer farm for five year w/ 9000 hens.

"Jumbo" or "double-yoked" eggs aren't that rare.

Lots of fun deformed & strange looking eggs i got to see.

Egg inside an egg isn't as common though.

We also had hens growing up also. I remember one time I was 12 and making a cake, it called for three eggs:

Cracked the first one, normal.

Cracked the 2nd one... Two yokes.

I sat there for a moment, wondering what the HELL we were feeding those things when something occurred to me...


"S***... do I put in the THIRD egg, or do I stop?!"
