red ring in boiled eggs
« on: June 11, 2013, 18:11 »
Boiled two eggs tonight from different birds and when I shelled and cut them in half they had a red ring in the yolk.  I gave them to the dog as I didn't fancy eating them.  Never had it before and can't find any information about it.   Thoughts please.

Any chance they were fertilised?  Only I remember when I used to incubate eggs that some of them had a red ring which meant the embryo was dead.

Just a thought

Were they Ruby rings ?

I did find a curtain ringf in an egg, a long time ago, though and that was in a boiled egg, and that isnt a joke, the wife and kids were there, before the internet was in full swing, so I couldnt google it, but the vet said it was possible, but he had never heard of it
