white eggs/brown eggs

I have had some free time on my hands and have been going to different farm stands in my area trying to find the best tasting eggs. I have bought eggs with white shells and when I crack them open I find the yellow yolk surrounded by the whites, I have bought brown shelled eggs and when I crack them open I find yellow yolk surrounded by whites, I have purchased speckled eggs and when I crack them open I find yellow yolk surrounded by the whites, I purchased eggs from a chicken that was called the Jersy giant, but was really a leghorn but no matter when I cracked open its shell the yolk was still yellow surrounded by the whites

    You have the correct awnser. Orange yoked or free-range eggs taste great. too many people stick em in a cage and feed them comercial feed and they wind up with basically store bought eggs.  Egg shell color depends on the breed of hen or mutt hen

I have more eggs than you can shake a stick at. bout 60 chickens running free on my place and they lay eggs everywhere! You have to be careful too, I have very broody hens and they like to sit their eggs and hatch out peeps, so I buy my eggs from the store lol. Have done the holding the egg up to the lamp to see what was inside before cracking ick not nice when you get a dead chick, yuk!

What a yolk. It cracked me up. I get eggs and broccoli at the store, and they really taste different.

There really are green eggs and ham, as anyone who has been in the military and eaten C-rations knows. They used to have a meal of ham & eggs in a can, and the egg portion would be green. Lots of guys wouldn't eat them, but they tasted good to me.

i get my eggs and vegetables from a local organic market, and there is a definite difference in taste between store bought and fresh organic (with the orange yolk) -- and the double yolk eggs are the best!  

now i feel like making a couple of soft boiled eggs for a snack -- yum!  

p.s.  No matter how much free time I will ever have on my hands, I will never have the desire to attempt putting the toothpaste back in its tube...lol

true 100% organic eggs have an orange yolk
and the outside is normal brown
it all depends on what u feed the hens with

that;s from junk fed chickens ( yellow in general)

Aricana(sp?) chickens lay pastel color eggs.  For real.  We used to get them (at Easter time) to hard boil and use in egg hunts.

there really are green eggs (just the shell) when you crack them from the top or bottom they are still yellow yock and whites.  eggs are differenct colors on the outside because their mothers feathers were different colors.

the green eggs really are a nice shade though........

Does any body know what came first the yolk or the egg white?
All interested people who care to debate this age old controversy, stay tuned for details.

Might I suggest as a next project to travel the world and see which way the water swirls when you flush the toilet.

Heck, you might even be able to get a grant to fund that study as it seems to be easier for this type than for something as frivolous as HCV treatment studies.

So eggactly what are you trying to say?

Seriously - What were you looking for?  The color of the "white" to be the color of the shell?  I don't think you could judge the nutrional value by looking at the raw egg, so what then?

I have work around here needs doin' if you're bored, by the way.
