Some egg yolks are orange in color because of the diet of the hen that laid the egg. Hens that eat a diet rich in carotenoids, such as those found in certain plants and insects, produce eggs with orange yolks.
The world record for the largest number of yolks found in one egg is 9, as verified by the Guinness World Records. Multi-yolked eggs, also known as double-yolkers, are relatively rare occurrences caused by the hen releasing two yolks in quick succession.
Some eggs have two yolks because two yolks were released from the hen's ovaries at the same time and ended up in the same egg.
No Brighter color reflects only the nutrition of the hen. The richer the color of the yolk indicates the quality of the food the hen is eating. Most free range hens lay eggs with bright orange yolks.

The most obvious thing that happens to the egg yolk because of the hen's diet, is that if she is on a wheat or white corn diet, her yolks will be light yellow. This coloration is preferred in the Midwest. In the South, where they light their yolks dark and orangy, the hens are fed diets high in carotenoids such as leafy green plants, marigold petals, tomatoes and red peppers. Otherwise the yolk's nutritional content will stay approximately the same as long as the hen is getting an adequate diet. There is a problem in chicks when the hen does not have adequate Vitamin E, but it is not significant enough to affect humans.
