Hi !!!
Everythings OK...
RED--Blood spots in the yolk are caused when a blood vessel breaks on the surface of the yolk. Blood spots indicate a fresh egg (the spots fade with time) and are safe to eat.

Spots of blood in the egg are safe for consumption.
In the actual hen, when the egg forms, sometimes a blood vessel inside the hen ruptures, thus leaving a spot or two of blood in the actual egg white or yolk. It does not mean the egg was fertilized.
A filtering process usually catches these spots found in eggs, and these eggs are then removed from the batch, but every now and then the electronic spotters miss a few.
You can read more at the source I provide (that's where I got my information. ^_^)

I would definately toss it out...but then again this is advice from someone who tosses an egg out if the yolk breaks when I fry it! Drives me crazy...my husband too. ha!ha!

It usually means the egg is fertilized. You are seeing the formation of the embryo. Don't worry it will not hurt you.

This is just blood. Personally I won't use an egg with blood in it. Toss it out.
