St Finnan Loft Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 As a teenager my wife was responsible for her fathers incubators and each year she reared over a thousand turkeys, in those days we had all sorts of birds and animals great memories, Blood on the outside of an egg shell means the hen has popped a few blood vessels in the vent this is not unusual, the egg produced may have been a bit larger than normal and ruptured vessels on exit (eggs are not always laid blunt end first) slight blood stain on the egg is usually not a problem for a racing pigeon it can happen at any age.

St Finnan Loft Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Not really we also had approx 200 hens on free range now that's what you call quality eggs,we had a fresh water burn that ran through 15 acres of land they were always scratching along the banks or walking through the the corn fields no wonder the eggs were quality.a dozen geese kept everyone at bay good memories.
