blood in eggs

[davekrista]

What would cause blood to be inside the eggs? and is this something that i should be concerned about?

I would like to know too. I have had several eggs with blood in them. also the white is milky.

Our whites were normal, just had blood in it.

Is it liquid blood, or just little tiny clots?

Is it more than this?

Its more like clots, just on the surface of the yolk...... it was just 1 egg. Hasn't happened since.

Maybe it's a meat spot?

I wouldn't worry about it, it has happened with my eggs too.
