Should I be concerned that one of my pullets it laying double yolkers? Her first egg was normal but her second was a double, weird but okay.
Her third egg was normal but her fourth was a double! Her fifth was large but only a single. But now the sixth looks like another double!

Her's vs her sister's

I would keep an eye on her and just watch her behavior to make sure she doesn't get eggbound but there's nothing you can do to stop her laying such large eggs. I'm sure she'll regulate as she gets more mature. Poor little thing.
 
I had a BO, that laid almost exclusively the first year, double Yolkers, occasionally the 2nd year, and never the 3rd year.

It is not uncommon in the beginning of laying to have these, and there is nothing you can do to really stop it. My son's always thought it was a piece of good luck!
