With brown eggs its easier to pick the little bits of shell out of your egg salad.

Imo, they do taste better, as long as they’re pasture raised. Perhaps the varieties that lay brown eggs create a different taste. Or maybe it’s just me.

[Snowybear]

Yes, it all depends on the breed of the chicken. We have one that lays blue eggs.

[Pete from Shawnee Mission]

Araucana chickens primarily lay eggs that are blue or blue-green, a color caused by the pigment oocyanin which is deposited throughout the shell during formation. While pure Araucanas are known for this distinct blue hue, the specific shade can vary between birds, ranging from very light blue to green or even khaki. (AI answer)

"As a passionate chicken fancier, Martha likes attending the annual Northeastern Poultry Congress in Springfield, Massachusetts. The event is held every year in January at the Eastern States Exposition Center and features more than 3,000 birds, including large fowl, waterfowl, turkeys, pigeons, Guineas, and a variety of breed chickens."

Martha--along with others--made raising chickens mainstream suburban! (My neighbor has Buff Orphingtons!)

Yeah. One egg is brown. The other is white.

Can I get a government grant to study blue eggs? And another few million for the Somali “Eg Strudy Cener” to research the spotted eggs when I use to have quail...

I do not care what the color of the egg is. Free Range chicken eggs taste better due to what they eat. Pay a buck more for a dozen eggs and get superior taste is not a bad deal.

I eat two eggs for breakfast every morning and I found that the shells of the brown eggs are much thicker.

We have five Speckled Sussex living in a coop with a very large, protected run.

They only free-range when we are outside with them. They have great personalities and their eggs are fantastic-tasting light brown.

Lots of fun and a nice protein reserve if the SHTF.

I’ve been buying white eggs as they are a little cheaper than brown ones. However, the difference in price is not substantial.

“That’s why different brown egg-laying chicken breeds lay different shades of brown eggs and why there is a range of colors even among chickens of the same breed. “

Very true. We have Buff Orpington and Barred Rock, both brown egg layers, but we get a whole range of pink to a deeper brown color. Sometimes speckled.

I would love to have some Barnevelder chickens; they lay shiny dark brown eggs, chocolate-looking.

I’ve had the ‘Easter Eggers’ in the past that lay all the pastel colors. Always pretty.
