    This is the first time you've heard that chicks have periods?

    Its a blood spot. They happen while the egg is being formed. No big deal really.

    Yeah, it's perfectly safe, albeit a little upsetting.

    It is the start of the zombie pandemic. If you eat it, you become patient zero.

    It means the egg has been fertilised.

    Just extra protein from the chicken jizz.

    Ah grow up, my parents had a poultry farm, a little red spot is the least of your worries.

    It's the blood as the result of a blunt blow to the egg when you smacked it off the side of the bowl before cracking it. You killed little chick.

    I don't mind a little bit of clot or whatever it is called but when I was a child my mother was making breakfast for the family and when she cracked open an egg the entire albumen part was blood red. I couldn't eat an egg for years after seeing it.

    My sister cracked an egg into a mixing bowl while making a cake in school,only to find a partially formed chick,complete with a little rubbery beak.
