What color ear lobes do roosters have?

Answer 1

The color of the earlobes is a general indication of the color of the eggs. A hen with red lobes usually will lay brown eggs.

The exception to this would be the Easter Egger, Ameraucana, and Araucana breeds. They usually have red lobes but will lay eggs in colors ranging from khaki green (army eggs), sky blue, pink tinted, to the occasional lavender tinted beauty.

This is all due to Genetics. The shell color is a result of pigments that are secreted by the hen and deposited on the eggshell's outer layers during formation in the chicken's oviduct. Brown eggs are from protoporphyrin, a breakdown product of hemoglobin. Blue and green hues are caused by the pigment oocyanin, a by-product of bile formation.

Answer 2

Brown Leghorn Chickens lay white eggs. You can tell by the little flap of skin where the ear is. If that is white, like on the brown leghorn, the hen will lay white eggs. The Leghorn is a great hen for eggs and she will lay up to 300 eggs in a single year. 300 white eggs.

Answer 3

Roosters typically have red ear lobes, but some breeds may have white or black ear lobes. The color of a rooster's ear lobes can sometimes be an indicator of its egg-laying abilities, as hens with white ear lobes tend to lay white eggs and hens with red ear lobes tend to lay brown eggs.

Answer 4

Chickens and other birds do not have ears, they have pores on the side of their heads.

Answer 5

Red for brown eggs.
