Video: Japan's Rabbit Cafe

My rabbit looked like the one in the lower left hand side. Those are called Dutch rabbits. To this day I can't eat rabbit. I was a little nervous about reading this topic till I found out the bunnies aren't on the menu.

@annien - guess they'll never have to buy new bunnies!

Incredibly cute, but when one brings one's own rabbbit to socialize with other rabbits, what does one do if the result is more rabbits? Or does the cafe supply rabbit contraception?

Because the fact is, they breed like rabbits.

"I'm going to eat the ear first! Heehee." Uh...

Imagine if you could market the egg in an egg.

For those that are cash strapped. The new egg squared. By a dozen get a dozen.

Of course it would make for an interesting hard boiled egg.

Wow. Now I was expecting an abnormal amount of yolks. Double wouldn't be unusual enough so I was thinking 3.

About 1/3 of the eggs my chickens have been laying have been double yolked but so far none have been double eggs. Now I'm sort of worrying about the freakishly big one I hard boiled last night for my batch of pickled eggs.

"The big egg is a lot bigger."

Hahaha. I agree, enblithe. The deadpan tone really makes the video.

Kind of crazy... you are right, above though... very similar to the double yolk thing.

Brilliant. I love the little kid voice in the background. "Weird!!!" And the wife's reaction.. "oh, that poor bird"... priceless.

it cracks me up that the woman says, "oh, that poor chicken."

So i watched this at work without the volume on.... so i dont know if he offers an explanation. While unusual, this isn't some freak-of-nature sort of thing.

Similar to the explanation for the double-yolked eggs, this egg-within-an-egg generally happens with first-time layers, or perhaps the first egg of the laying season. When an egg gets made the yolk, then white are formed and then it moves to the shell gland to get a membrane and shell. Eggs are laid on average, once a day. At the first egg-laying season, the hormones and circadian rhythm (biological "clock" that registers day and night) isn't yet perfectly timed.
This means, the first egg might still be in the shell gland when a second yolk-and-white enter. So... the body produces a single shell that surrounds both of them.
These eggs dont make it into the market for the general public.
