Odd spotted eggs?

[GreggsEggs]

Every so often I get a couple spotted eggs out of 2-3 dozen. They are brown eggs with reddish spots. I even get some that have dark and light spots and when help up to a bright light they are translucent almost transparent.

Here are a couple of pictures.....let me know if i should be concerned or not..... is there a problem with their diet?

Thats normal coloring for eggs....something to do with the traveling time down the oviduct!

Look fine to me! I used to have a hen who laid pinkish eggs with lavender speckles sometimes. Pretty! I love the speckled ones.

It is normal.
My RIR's lay eggs that look exactly like your pic.

Those are very normal for backyard chicken owners to get from their hens sometimes....Only reason they seem odd is because everyone is use to store bought eggs that have been washed and waxed, steamed and pressed, run through x-ray machines!...LOL...
