Weird growth in my egg

[JLord1971]

Found this in my egg this morning. Poked it and it moved. We don’t have a rooster so no clue what this might be. Would love your thoughts.

Oh my! I know I’ve heard that sometimes with newer chickens, tissue can slough off during the egg formation process... is it moving independently, or is it just pliable when you touch it?

Do you worm them? any broody hens? Or roaming roos?

It’s not the beginning of development - unless you took it out from under a broody hen or from an incubator. Was there a yolk in the egg? From my understanding it’s an underdeveloped yolk - just had one the other day that had no yolk and just that little weird kidney looking thing in the middle. I cooked it for my dogs.

It would only move when poked. Absolutely mind boggling.

No on all three counts

No, this was in addition to a full yolk.

Erm.. that does not look like a normal egg contents....
Normally you have a yolk surrounded by white.
Your egg there looks like white surrounded by yolk???

That looks like a meat spot. Here is some information:

I'd say meat spot, except OP said it 'moved'.?
