There are no health risks from eating eggs that have red spots, and the red spot doesn't mean the egg is fertilized. It's just a spot of blood. If you see a blood spot, dip it out with a spoon if you think it looks nasty, it poses no health risk. I think they are caused by the rupture of a blood vessel on the yolk's surface during it's formatrion inside the chicken.
In fact: As an egg gets older water moves from the egg white into the yolk, diluting the blood spot. So a visible blood spot actually means a fresh egg.
So, don't worry Raggie, you'll live. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sick.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mpr.gif
