Blood inside egg

[startinghandle]

This morning I bought 6 eggs from local shop ,the box had free range and a local supplier near to Newtown.first egg was ok when cracked in pan but inside the second egg was blood which means it had been fertilised
Free range producers should be more with cockerels

Sorry but that's BS, it's usually caused by a ruptured blood vessel in the hens ovary.

It was possible to get the same happening when birds were kept in cages with not a cock in sight.

Not possible.
Not the way it works.

Ok I made mistake but there was a fair bit of blood

Why is it not possible?
I just remembered 50 years ago in biology lesson eggs were broken during early fertilisation and there was blood

When we had a good retail sale for eggs , we occasionally got one with a blood spot or a meat spot in them . People would come and complain that they had chicks in them . These were Battery hens with not a male in sight , not even a "meg-harry" I used to tell them to look for the bright star in the East , like there was the first time that happened . (all in the best possible taste of course )

My daughter had one from one of my pullets the other day.

Needless to say, squeamish, She dumped the lot.
Don't think I'd fancy it either.
That'll learn her to crack into a cup first.
