Blood on eggs

[Fred and tog]

My Herman’s tortoise has laid 7 eggs. Some of them are covered in blood. Do we need to take her to the vets? She has been eating and otherwise seems fine.

I can imagine perhaps when she lays the eggs, it causes some tearing in the cloaca. Don’t take my word for it, someone experienced will come along.
