The only difference between brown eggs and white eggs is just that, the color. The brown color is caused by pigment added to the egg and depends on the type of chicken. The thickness of the shell depends on the health of the chicken and its diet. Healthier chickens generally lay eggs with thicker shells.

No. the hardness of the egg shell is not determined by the colour. The colour of the egg is simply a pigment secreted by a bile duct in a chickens oviduct. Young hens lay very hard shelled eggs in comparison to older hens at the end of their egg production cycle. Nutrition and health determine the health (hardness)of the shell.

No, it is a myth, the colour of the shell has no bearing on the nutrient value of the egg.

Most commercially produced eggs now have brown shells because folk belive the myth and demand a brown shell.
