What the heck is in this egg?

My 3 year old california white hen laid this in a soft shell this morning- What's inside??? Looks like a white rock, and a blood clump with tissue in it.

My main concern is her safety, her reproductive system has always been a little funky which I know can turn dangerous real quick.

Did you actually feel that "white rock" to see if it was hard? Otherwise I'm guessing meat and/or blood spot, which you can eat but many folks prefer to remove them as they don't look appetizing.

A small piece of the reproductive tract that falls off during the egg making process and winds up in the egg. Usually they're pretty tiny
