What makes brown chicken eggs healthier for human consumption than white chicken eggs?

Nope! The only difference between brown eggs & white eggs is the shell's colour. Happy Egg Eating! Absolutely NOT! The only difference in shell color is the breed of chicken that laid it. If the hens were fed the same diet, brown-shelled eggs and white-shelled eggs are the same. Thete ARE some people who swear that they taste differently. Unfortunately for them, taste tests have consistently proved that those people CANNOT tell the difference.


Why are three brown eggs?

Brown eggs come from hens that are mostly brown such as Plymouth Rock and Rhode Island. White eggs come from white hens such as the white Leghorn.Another viewFeather colour is not actually a good indicator of the colour egg the hen will lay. Breed of hen will determine the colour of the egg shell. Black Cochin hens lay brown eggs, white Ameraucana hens will lay green shelled eggs. It is believed the colour of the feathers near the ears of a hen is an indicator but that too is not always reliable.

There actually is no difference between the two. Brown eggs and white eggs just come from different types of chickens.

Therefore, there really is no difference but brown eggs tend to be stronger (because they are usually locally raised).

Why are brown eggs more expensive?

There's no real difference in the taste of brown eggs v. white eggs, though I always use brown eggs simply b/c the yolks seem to be harder to break and I prefer my eggs over-easy. Brown eggs are simply preferred by restaurants because they can find bits of egg shell faster in dishes being made...the brown shell shows up better when lost in the mix.

There are lots of breeds which lay white or creamy-white shelled eggs, and a few which lay blue or olive-green shelled eggs (Araucanas, Ameraucanas & Crested Legbars).
