Why Do Some Eggs Have Blood Spots?

A common myth is that blood spots mean the egg was fertilized. This is false information. Rather, blood spots are the result of the rupturing of tiny blood vessels in the hen’s ovaries or oviduct. The oviduct is the passageway between the ovaries and the outside environment.

Blood spots can occur in both the yolk and the white. A blood spot in the yolk means that the bleeding occurred in the ovary when the hen released the egg from the follicle. If the spot is in the white, this means the bleeding happened after the hen released the egg into the oviduct.
