This Is No Yolk

TIRANA (Reuters) - People in the Albanian capital Tirana have been shocked by an increasing number of eggs without yolks, local television reported Thursday.
"We broke half of the eggs we bought but they lacked their yolks. Friends of ours told us the same had happened to them and in restaurants as well," a woman told the News24 TV station.
Antonio Conardio, a professor of Fowl Pathology at the University of Bari in Italy, said the all-white eggs were a rare phenomenon that happened when chickens were overdriven to produce more eggs.
The yolkless egg was Albania's second shock this year from apparently freaky fowls. Early in February, news spread of a cock producing an egg. But its owner slaughtered the animal for a Muslim festivity, making checks impossible. -
