  • Sure I've found blood on the egg

    I'm sure the last couple if eggs from ind of mh chucks has smeared with blood, looks like the same chuck, not entirh sure which, but what is causing this

    sometimes a pin feather around the vent can rupture when laying and put a layer of blood on the egg shell. Othertime (particularly if introducing new birds) an arguement between the birds causing a minor blood shed and it gets on the eggs.

    If its a one off i wouldnt worry, but if it is happening day in and day out then use a trap nest to work out which one is the culprit and give her a good looking over.
