You\u2019ve probably noticed it at the store \u2014 some eggs are white, others are brown, and the brown ones usually cost more. But what\u2019s the real<\/em> difference between them? The answer might surprise you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It all comes down to the breed of the chicken.<\/strong>
White eggs come from hens with white feathers and white earlobes<\/strong>, while brown eggs are laid by hens with red feathers and red earlobes.<\/strong> That\u2019s it \u2014 nothing more mysterious than genetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nutritionally, they\u2019re almost identical. Both have the same amount of protein, fat, and vitamins. The taste is also nearly the same \u2014 unless the hens are fed differently. Sometimes brown-egg-laying hens are raised on small farms or organic feed, which can give the yolk a deeper color and a slightly richer flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So why are brown eggs more expensive?
Because the hens that lay them tend to be larger<\/strong> and eat more feed<\/strong>, making them costlier to raise. The price difference isn\u2019t about quality \u2014 it\u2019s simply about the cost of production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
