Can I do anything to stop it.

After 2 years I think it's pretty normal for it to happen, some birds more than others.
If they specks are very large and/or happen constantly, there could be an internal problem......
......tho I don't know if or how it can be 'fixed'.

I have a had few very bloody eggs, but they were glitches that didn't continue.....
......but it sure makes you break eggs in a separate bowl for while.

We don't see these in grocery eggs because can they sort them out as rejects.
I don't even bother spooning them out usually.

Is their a machine to see if the egg has it in it before I sell them? My younger chickens also lay eggs with blood spots in it!

Sometimes you can see them if you candle them.....I found one once while candling prior to setting eggs in incubator.
My customers know that they might see them, what they are and that they are fine to eat.
