« on: October 19, 2009, 02:11:59 pm »
hi all,
the last few days one of my chickens is laying eggs with blood on the outside shell.
she seems healthy enough,but i was wondering if this is something i should be worried about.
any advice would be welcome.

if its small specks look for bugs. if its a small streak it will be ok if lots of blood bad news. but its usually a sign of mites
