>>Had a clutch of 7 Tricolor eggs. Egg #1 pipped on 2/14, hatchedd 2/15. Eggs #2 (twins), #3, and #4 pipped and hatched on 2/16. 3 eggs left that look good. On 2/17 slit the remaining 3 eggs. All had clear fluid, so I place them back in the incubator. Yesterday one of them pipped, and the baby came on out today. The egg still felt heavy, so I took a closer look, and it appeared to be an egg in an egg. Anybody ever seen or heard of such a thing?? Know what the cause is?

looks like the yolk of a potential twin that didn't make it.
