The difference between a brown egg and a white egg



The color difference is due to the specific breed of hen, according to the Egg Nutrition Center. Hens with white feathers and white earlobes will lay white eggs, where as hens with red feathers and matching-colored earlobes give us brown eggs.

Chicken eggs aren't limited to just brown or white. They also come in blue or even a nice speckled finish (though you may have to make a special request at your local supermarket for these).

The color of the eggshell has nothing to do with the taste of the egg.



All awswers above were found somewhere on the internet. Sorry no specific website credits.
