IMHO really rare, but then happened with several eggs from the same batch.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

I think they tend to put them together. If I'm remembering correctly, it's a common practice to put similar eggs together rather than adding them to cartons at random, so consumers have more uniform cartons of eggs.
I had one carton a few months ago that was like 10 double -yolk eggs and ended up looking it up.
Yeo. They shine a light through the egg to see the double yolkers. You can buy packs of them.
Some slip through though
