First egg and bloody

[DementedHam]

My bantam hen just laid an egg about 10 minutes ago, and half of it was bloody. I've never had this happen before. For a bantam egg and to be the first egg it's quite "big". The hen seems fine, kind of quiet, and I checked her vent and it was also slightly bloody. [She isn't bleeding though]

Anything I should be worried about? It's my sisters and she wanted me to ask just to make sure.
Thanks.

She should be fine. Started off a big that's all. It's not uncommon.

I had a tiny Hamburg pullet that did that to me and she came out fine. I think the first five eggs were bloody and by the time fifth egg came out, it was very very light brown bloody and no more since then.

This is normal and its first timers to lay eggs LOL
