More details
The Yolk of the egg is how the chick grows in a fertilized egg. It grows using the nutrients which are coming from the yolk. The color of the egg can vary from a very pale yellow to a bright orange and this changes depending on what the chicken eats and the nutritional health of the hen who laid the egg. The hen eating a high protein diet will lay deeper colored eggs and a hen only living on corn will be laying pale eggs.
