Would it be the difference in identical twins and frateral (did I spell it correctly)?? Two Yorkie puppies born in a litter are twins, but not identical, 3 are triplets, but not identical..4 and so on...never had two in one sac or sharing one plancenta...so I guess identical twins are very rare in Yorkies. Interesting thought...
