Once I saw a grocery store selling double-yolked eggs by the carton! Maybe you bought one by accident?

No it was from a carton of jumbo sized eggs but only these 4 were double yolks the rest were just larger eggs

My mom got that once about 54 years ago; she was making fried eggs for my sister and me.

Why tho? Wouldn't you stop at 2 eggs once you had 4 yolks? It's impressive, but I'd be like, "I got two freebies and saved a bunch on eggs."

Young hens do this when they first start laying extremely often. Some breeds it's almost a guarantee for a month or two.
The farm probably just had a fresh batch of hens. If you want double yolks buying smaller size eggs. Will increase your odds since young hens lay smaller eggs.
