Embilly Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Hi All, One of my hens has been having 'bits' in her eggs on and off for a few months now. We thought they may be blood spots, but they seem to be quite hard, and today there was a big lump (see photo here - ' target='_blank' rel='noopener'> or http://www.flickr.com/photos/76842754@N00/8273261778/in/photostream - but was cream coloured earlier). She is healthy, wormed and laying regularly - does anyone have any idea what these bits may be, and if there is anything we can/should do. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Sounds like a meat spot. I wondered if you were describing a lash but they're normally laid separately from an egg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Embilly Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 Thank you, I wondered if that was it, but wasn't sure. Am I right in thinking these are just something that happens (she is a brown egg layer), or is it a sign that anything may be wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 As far as I know, they aren't anything to worry about (but I'm not exactly an expert!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
