A black hen can lay a white egg or a brown egg...you might even find one that lays blue eggs.Actually, its the skin around the sides of the face (known as "earlobes") that correlateswith egg color. The egg color and the earlobe color do not match,rather it is possible to predict the color of a hen's eggs by looking ather earlobes.
