How were people classified under apartheid?

White or black. (there was brown too, for those between white and brown, so that the Indians can get accommodated. As you may guess, whites were at the top, the brown ppl at the middle, and black ppl at the bottom. This explains why blacks in South Africa tend to hate Indians b/c they received better treatment (comparatively) than the blacks. For some reason, they still seem to adore whites( this bit is my opinion).


Are there brown koalas?

As a species, koalas are grey, rather than brown.Koalas have woolly light to dark grey fur with brown and white patches and a cream belly. Mature males have a brown stain on their chest, the result of a gland which produces an orange coloured discharge. This is used to mark the trees the male climbs (and attract females) by rubbing this gland against the base of the tree and the trunk. Southern koalas tend to have fur that is darker and tending more towards brown than that of koalas found in the northern parts of Australia.

Do white eggs dissolve faster in vinegar than brown eggs?

Mostly likely not. The only difference between white eggs and brown eggs is that the whites are laid by white hens, and the browns are laid by brown hens. Most "cage-free" eggs, however, are brown. The hens that laid them were housed in human conditions, so the eggs will not only taste better, they may react differently with vinegar than the cheaper eggs laid by the hens kept in the tiny cages. The results will not have anything to do with the color.

No, the colour and the size of the egg are not related. Breed determines the size and contents of an egg, not the color. Smaller chickens tend to lay smaller eggs, and the colour depends on the colour of the hen's ear-flap.

Why are brown eggs cheaper?

There actually is no difference between the two. Brown eggs and white eggs just come from different types of chickens. Although, most eggs of chickens who are raised locally have brown eggs and most locally raised chickens have better feed because they are not raised in masses so their eggs will be stronger. Therefore, there really is no difference but brown eggs tend to be stronger (because they are usually locally raised).


What makes brown chicken eggs healthier for human consumption than white chicken eggs?

Nope! The only difference between brown eggs & white eggs is the shell's colour. Happy Egg Eating! Absolutely NOT! The only difference in shell color is the breed of chicken that laid it. If the hens were fed the same diet, brown-shelled eggs and white-shelled eggs are the same. Thete ARE some people who swear that they taste differently. Unfortunately for them, taste tests have consistently proved that those people CANNOT tell the difference.

Why eggs are brown?

It depends on the breed of the chicken. It is a genetic trait. A rule of thumb is to look at the earlobe of the chicken, and that is roughly what the eggs will look like. The White Leghorn breed lays most of the white eggs. The brown eggs come from the Rhode Island Red, the New Hampshire and the Plymouth Rock. The reason brown eggs cost more is because the hens are a little bigger and tend to need more care. Plus there is the urban legend saying they are healthier, so naturally, stores will charge more since more people want them. Brown eggs are not any healthier than white eggs. Egg colors are not limited to white and brown. There are also blue and speckled eggs, though they are hard to find in stores. Those come from the Aracuna breed.


What age do brown chickens lay eggs?

Chickens, whether the chicken is brown, white, blue, red or, or... all start laying eggs when they are mature enough to do so. The average age for chickens to start laying eggs is 5-6 months of age. You will notice the wattle and comb begin to appear more red than pink as they become more developed and distinct. This is an indicator that the young hen is about ready to start laying. And brown chickens don't necessarily lay brown eggs. It's a common misconception. Brown Leghorns, for example, lay white eggs just as their white colored counterparts do. The color of egg the chicken will lay coincides with the color of the earlobe. A white earlobe = white eggs. Colored earlobe = brown or tinted eggs. Hope this helped!
