The little spots of blood are of no significance and you can disregard them.
If the spot is small, there’s no harm in eating the egg.
The egg itself is halal. That’s because it’s only the blood that is “shed” or “poured forth” that is prohibited.
But if you want to remove the spot, it can easily be done with a sharp knife.
The USDA says “eggs with blood spots are totally safe to eat.
The blood spot is “caused by a rupture of one or more small blood vessels in the yolk at the time of ovulation” and in no way indicates the egg is unsafe or fertilized.”

Ibn Taimiyyah said:
“It is only the blood that is shed or poured forth that is prohibited.
It is proven that the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to put the meat in the vessel and streaks of blood would be seen in the water, but I do not know of anyone among the scholars who differed with the view that this is overlooked and is not regarded as impure, according to scholarly consensus.”
And Allaah knows best
