What are these brown floating, odd-shaped specks in some of my eggs? I have searched this online, but nothing out there about it. They're not on the yolk, but floating in the white. Are they safe to eat? I won't even boil any until I find out if they're okay. Please help. Very new to this. Thanks.

They are called meat spots or blood spots. They are ok to eat. Some people prefer to take them out. That is a personal choice. Also some people will break the eggs open in a dish first.
 
Thanks for getting back to me. I'll fish them out, too. Guess I won't be boiling any, but my little green eggs never seem to have them. Maybe I could boil just those. I'll just have to decide as time goes by.
