Yup I'm a chicken

Always safer to crack the eggs into a cup before mixing it in with anything. And I only hard boil eggs from some of my chickens, since one is prone to laying meat spotted eggs. I know the spots are harmless but I prefer removing them.

Amen to that. Learned that lesson the hard way!:lau

Blood spot occurs when a blood vessel that was part of the blood supply to the yolk while developing ruptures. Most of the time, it's just a tiny little spot. I've had two or three over the years (out of hundreds of eggs laid) that were quite bloody.
A meat spot is when a bit of tissue (meat) breaks off at some point along the egg production system and ends up in the egg.
In either case, the eggs are still perfectly fine to eat. Looks a bit off-putting freshly cracked, but once cooked, you can't even tell.
 
Just crack the egg in s bowl first to see if it has any meat spots they are super easy to remove I have one chicken that just started laying and hers so far have all hade small meat spots I them.
Ya first time seeing it wife’s mr out a bit I took s fork removed it and fryer up my egg. First bite my stomach was a bit unsure (I have really bad meat issues and that makes me very picky about how my meat looks and is cooked). So I had to suck it up and it tasted just like the others
Before doing this hehe I did have to post a photo asking what it was and if it was save to eat
Good luck :)
 
Sometimes the entire albumen of the egg is watery and red from a bleed. Instead of egg white, you get egg red.:sick

I've had a lot of blood spots or meat spots in eggs, especially from my Welsummers for some reason but every now and again I get one that is just a yolk and watery bright red 'white' of the egg. Like I said, I learned the hard way to always crack the Welly eggs into a measuring cup before using them but in all seriousness, cracking an egg and having a yolk plop out with a pure red, runny 'egg white' is a bit disconcerting not to mention just gross.
