Is there such thing as the yolk of the egg being white because I found the yolk in an egg that is white?
Yes, a yolk of an egg can be so washed out and pale yellow that it appears white. This is simply a result of what the hen has been eating and it can indicate a poor diet or poor health. Try allowing the hens to free range if possible as grass and other plants such as clover enhance the yellow colour of the yolk. If free range is not practical, supplement the diet with dark green leafy produce as a treat, this should darken up the colour quality of the eggs within a few days.

Absolutely. The yolk's particular shade has nothing to do with the freshness of the egg but is determined primarily by the make-up of the hen's diet.

Both are perfectly fine eggs to consume.
