I collected my daughter's eggs for her this morning (well the hen's eggs anyway!) and one of those had blood on it. She said not to worry,it was probably one of the younger ones laid it.
She and her husband have just gone of for a few days break. I just hope everything is still alive when she gets back. They are like her children.

Thanks again for all your help, only the 2nd egg Joyce the Appenzeller has laid, i will keep a eye on her.
