Answers:
For free range If there is no sign of development in the yolk, it is just a spot, it can happen in unfertilized eggs as well, I forget what it is called!. Cook the egg and eat it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Don't eat it, the hen bled a little while the egg was forming in her, this happens sometimes!. If it had been a fertilized egg you would see dot in the yoke where the chicken had started to form, but not blood!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It still is scrabbled egg, but if you waited long enough, it would have been BBQ Chicken instead

my mum would always scrape that discoloured section away from the yoke and white before cooking !.!.!. but that was her style - the rest of the egg is greatWww@FoodAQ@Com

that is Normal!. What we eat is half developed baby chicken still in the egg, we boil them first and open the egg, there they are, the baby half developed chicken and we eat them!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It is a natural occurrence not very often!.!.Harmless and tasteless!.
stay away from free range!.!.!. They almost always are fertile!.
BUT dead because of refrigeration!.!.

Most likely that the egg was fertile!. How the hen that laid it got to the cockerel is anyone's guess!.

It won't do you any harm!.

Look free range eggs still mean eggs!. Eggs sometimes have blood because its a chicken time of the month!. Its no different from any other egg!. Try tofu scramble if you wish to give up eggs!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Eww! the egg was fertilized, an embryo was forming! Unless you are Asian, I don't think you will like the taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It means the egg was fertilized!. It could have been a chicken!.
It won't hurt yeah!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's fine to eat, it is a little blood, but it's fineWww@FoodAQ@Com
