Checking eggs for blood spots

What is the proper way to check an egg for blood spots?

The way to check an egg for blood spots is to empty it out of the shell into an clear, empty bowl or glass, and to look at it there from all sides. Hard-boiled eggs do not have to be checked. If the eggs are fertilized, which most on the market today are not, there are different laws.
