What is this on this egg?

[Caffus]

I want to save some of these light blue eggs for possible incubation, but she lays most of them with this white stuff on them. It's not poop, is it ok for incubation?

Is it powdery?

Ya

I was thinking it might be "the bloom" but I think thats not supposed to show?

It could be a little extra calcium was deposited. I think it is safe to incubate them.

Pretty color!

Usually it won't-however, I have one hen that adds an extra layer of it to her eggs, and therefore they have a whitish coating. But here, I agree with @21hens-incharge - this looks more like a calcium deposit.

To me it looks like some Urates. I've had a few like that.

To much calcium then? Safe to incubate?
