Is this egg fertilized?

So silly question. I have 6 hens, well, at least I think I have 6 hens......My girls started laying 5 days ago and my Delaware, Bernadette, was the first to lay, followed by my Blue Andalusian, Eleanor. Yesterday, Eleanor laid her first egg. After I collected eggs, I put them in the fridge and when I cracked Eleanor's egg open this evening, I saw a "bull's eye" and a blood spot on it. Normally I won't worry but I don't have a Roo.....so, is one of my girls just in disguise? LOL

I'm the only one in the neighborhood that has chickens and I live within city limits. My Eleanor is pretty vocal, but obviously she's not because well...she gave me an egg. I know it was her's because she's my only white egg layer...Um, so awkward. I guess I'll have to keep an eye on everyone and see if anyone crows but they range in age from 16 to 21 weeks old currently. No one's crowed so far but they sure do like to sign their egg songs ALL DAY LONG.
