The coloured bits are what they call blood/meat spots and this does happen.
Here is a link that explains.

Looks to me like blood spots :?
These can occur when blood or a bit of tissue is released along with the yolk when the eggies being made
Bright blood spots show the eggy is fresh, blood spots fade as the egg ages
