New to chickens

[Teila]

G’Day from down under FRM Welcome!

While I have experience with soft shelled eggs, not with bloody eggs also and for this reason, I suggest posting on the Emergencies / Diseases / Injuries and Cures forum Diva mentioned or taking her to the Vet as Riche mentioned.

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

You might want to also Find Your State Thread and pop in and say hello.

BYC has Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource, informative and sometimes entertaining; so definitely worth checking out. This previous discussion may be of assistance:
Topic of the Week - When eggs go wrong

If you would like to share Pictures and Stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out

I started raising my chicks last May 2017. I have one Leghorn Rooster, one Leghorn hen and 3 Rode Island Red Hens. Today is the first time I found an shell-less egg. The egg I found does not fit any description found on the internet. It was not intact, not rubber, not soft. At first I thought a hen had a bloody stool. Upon further assessment and poking a hole in the center yellow yolk came pouring out so I knew it was not a stool, but it was covered in blood! Is this something I should be concerned about?

Welcome to BYC!!!It is great having you here and if you have any questions about your flock,we are here to help.
