Eggs ok to eat?

[mrscbass]

I had a hen die yesterday unexpectedly. She was pooping bright red blood about 12-14 hours beforehand, not sure. All you good people told me to get the rest of my flock on Corid, which I have done.
The hen that died had been laying for about a week or so. Does anybody know if we can eat the eggs that she layed before she died? There was one every day there are 3.

I do believe that humans can in fact catch Cocci. So I personally would NOT eat.

Wish ya the best.

Actually cocci strains are animal specific. Chickens get different kinds than dogs, cows, turkeys, ducks, etc, so I don't think it will pass on to humans. And I would wash my eggs, too.
