ALEXANDRIA — It was just a normal Friday morning for Sandy Steinberg until it came time to cook breakfast.
“At first glance I thought I had broken the yolk,” Steinberg said.
But what she had actually just cracked open was a quadruple-yolk egg. According to the British Egg Information Service, the odds of discovering a quadruple-yolker are one in 11 billion, according to a press release from Dakota Layers.
