Free range eggs are not any particular color. It depends on the type of chicken that layed the egg. Our Gold Star Chickens lay beautiful brown eggs, while our White Rock Chickens lay brownish eggs. The White Rocks have a pale color when compared to the Gold Stars. For more information email us at: wilsonfamilyfarm.stuart@gmail.com
