Hello. I was making brunch today and cracked open one of my Barred Rock's eggs to find this brown, solid, yet somewhat squishy (think the texture of a chicken liver) mass inside the egg.
3 of my hens (including this one) are older ladies so a little blood spot here and there doesn't bother...
Hen just started laying again after about 6 months. This is her 4th egg in 2 weeks. Very soft shell, really rough feeling and smallish. This egg she laid today and it was slightly cracked so I decided to open the rest of the way. This strange looking brown mass was in the whites.
