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?

We once had a larger than normal egg from a local source. When we opened it, it was a normal single yolk egg with a tiny otherwise fully formed shelled egg inside it. The tiny egg had a tiny single yolk.
Did you check the other yolk with a magnifying glass?
Nope, mixed it in for scrambled eggs. The small egg was about quail egg sized.
