How do you know good food?
 

Put your knowledge here.

I know eggs. Your grocery store egg has a light yellow yoke and the white is runny. A "real" egg has a dark orange yolk that stands up in the pan and the whites are firm.

Wiki
The diet of the laying hens can greatly affect the nutritional quality of the eggs. For instance, chicken eggs that are especially high in omega 3 fatty acids are produced by feeding laying hens a diet containing polyunsaturated fats and kelp meal. Pastured raised free-range hens which forage largely for their own food also tend to produce eggs with higher nutritional quality in having less cholesterol and fats while being several times higher in vitamins and omega 3 fatty acids than standard factory eggs [24] Focusing on the protein and crude fat content, a 2010 USDA study determined that there were no significant differences of these two macronutrients in consumer chicken eggs.[25]

I enjoy brown eggs.

Isn't shell color due to genetics/breed rather than diet/environment?

Yes, but they are brown! duh :) Maybe I am just prejudiced.

Seriously, according to Griff they are REAL deal. They do have an orange yolk, stand up in the pan and almost cluck they taste SO fresh.

But you can also get brown eggs with "supermarket qualities". The "good eggs" I buy vary in shell color depensing on supplier. The supermarket eggs are usually, but not always, white, and I understand that is simply because the average American consumer prefers white. In the UK, supermarket eggs are usually brown. Or at least they were..... Again, because British consumers prefer that. Because that's what they're used to, most likely.

Yeah, I had some aracauna chickens that laid blue and green eggs and would do so regardless of feed.

Shell color, yes. What's inside the shell, no.

I have birds that lay brown eggs (Black Australorp), white eggs (Buttercup), blue eggs and green eggs (Araucana). My big dumb Leghorn roo recently fathered four chicks whose mothers are Araucanas. Leghorns normally lay white eggs, but because the Araucana blue/green egg shell gene is dominant, odds are good that these cross-breeds will lay blue/green eggs, instead of white ones. The birds look like Leghorns, so far... won't know for sure about egg-shell color for another four months or so.

My chickens are free-range and eat a diet of high-quality layer feed mixed with cracked corn and oyster shell calcium. They also get regular treats of canned corn, lettuce, cabbage, and whatever else my garden happens to be producing at the time. Kitchen scraps are fair game, too, but no meat, fish, garlic or onions.

ALL the eggs produced by my birds have nice firm whites and big orange yolks. From the nine laying hens I currently have, I get about six eggs per day (this is amazing; egg production usually really drops off in winter). They're carrying the load for the other four hens that aren't laying, but that old "Meat or eggs" thing still applies. Come summer, if they don't start producing again....

I never realized how much difference there was in eggs until we got some eggs from a friend who get theirs from a co-op.
