The Spectrum Of Eggs

Do you know what determines the colour of an egg?

a) the breed of chicken

b) the colour of their earlobes

c) what they eat

d) the colour of their feathers

B! The colour of a hen's earlobes indicates what colour of eggs they will lay.

Despite the visual difference, an eggs colour does not affect it's nutritional quality. A brown egg is the same as white, green or even blue in nutritional quality and taste.
