Reply To: Eggs: chumra to treat then like fleishig

Ziongate – “Do you eat soft/hard boiled eggs? Maybe it had a blood drop (blitztrop) ?”

Indeed, if you open a hard or soft boiled egg and find a blood spot, it should be discarded (today’s eggs Reb Moshe paskened do not have “real” blood – b’dieved or b’hefsed meruba).

The shayla is – how do you know the egg you are eating comes from a kosher chicken, the chicken might have been a treifa (broken limbs or sickness that renders it a treifa)? Are we somech on “rov” (majority) or a chazaka?

A chicken which is a treifa (alive but won’t survive a year) that laid eggs, those eggs are not kosher.

Yet, we ignore that possability!
