Why are chicken eggs different colors?

Fun fact: The color of the chicken egg does not affect the taste or nutritional value of the egg!

Yup, it’s true. According to Michigan State University Extension, “egg color is determined by the genetics of the hens. The breed of the hen will indicate what color eggs she will produce. For example, Leghorn chickens lay white eggs while Orpingtons lay brown eggs and Ameraucana produce blue eggs. An Olive Egger, a chicken that lays olive green eggs, is the product of a cross between a hen and rooster that are from a brown egg and a blue egg laying breed. 

All eggs start out white in color; those that are laid in shades other than white have pigments deposited on them as the eggs travel through the hen’s oviduct. The journey through the chicken’s oviduct takes approximately 26 hours. The shell takes roughly 20 hour to complete.”

Cool Tip: Look at the chicken’s ear lobes, typically those with white earlobes produce white eggs…wild!
