    We need to find these chickens that produce double yolk eggs and breed more of them.

I have always heard that Amish communities have an affinity for breeding double yolk layers. Can not say if that is true, however. Web searches have never turned up anything that I'd call cite-able on the subject, but it isn't like the Amish have a big web presence.

Hens that have just started to lay tend to produce more double yolk eggs. It takes a while for their bodies to fall into a rhythm.
