double chicken yolk question
this morning we had scrabbled egg and two of the eggs had double yolks. i was wondering if anyone knows what would hatch from an egg with a double yolk or would it just not survive? would it be
2 seperate chick? conjoined chicks? 1 chick and other dies?

In some rare cases 2 chicks can and have hatched.
However. Due to space issues inside the egg it can cause 1 or both to die during incubation.
