S found one with a double yolk (those are more common with younger chickens, since their bodies are still sorting out the whole how to lay an egg thing).
This led to the question of, can you have two chicks hatch out of the same egg.
Google to the rescue.
After watching a poorly filmed assisted hatching of two chicks from one egg, we followed the links.
And watched lots of videos of unnaturally multicolored chicks.
Looked up how one goes about dying chicks (turns out you drill a hole and inject dye into the egg to dye them pre-hatching).
Then there were dyed ducklings, swimming cats, goats, poodles, animated chickens, and finally some cows which underwent some serious photo shopping and other changes.
