That used to happen with ordinary silver top sometimes, maybe it depended on the time of year and what the cows were eating. My mum used to spoon it off and let us have 'top of the milk' on our pudding instead of custard. You never see it nowadays, not that I drink full fat anyway, but I suspect most milk is homogenised these days.
Yes, I think it is because it's all homogenised now. When I was a child and we had the milkman deliver it in glass bottles and leave it on the step the birds occasionally used to peck through the foil top to get at the cream on top.
