I've had a few like that - it's not uncommon in first time breeders and sometimes in more experienced ones.

What does it meen when its like that then, does it meen that something is wrong and do you have to dispose of the egg.x

No, there's as much chance this egg is fertile as any other. I'm not sure why it happens but i've been assured by people on other forums that it's nothing to really worry about. If the hen is distressed and ill looking i would be worried though.

Lol nice ya shes so happy shes eating a lot fo cuddle bone and i make sure she has enough. Also i heard that the yoke of a boiled egg is good for her too I might try that. Anyone else have any other ideas for the birds and breeding them.

No idea what you feed them when you are breeding them I would imagine foods with lots of calcium in.x:)

Hard boiled eggs pack a lot of protien so it is great for them. Yeah calcium is obviously a must!

I heard you can mix some skim milk in with their water. My birds liked it. Just remember to change it before it starts to spoil!

In poultry 4-H i learned that when the bird lays an egg somtimes there may be a blood clot or a blood vessel will get a hole. if it happens only every once in a while it fine but if it happens every egg your bird has a propblem. if it's her first egg then it would be easy to get a couple blood spots.
