Brown Eggs

Unlike white eggs, which have white shells, brown eggs are just chicken eggs with brown shells. The breed of chicken that lays the egg determines the color of the egg shell; some breeds lay brown eggs, while others lay white eggs.

Eggs with a brown shell are frequently thought to be organic, free-range, or farm-fresh eggs; however, shell color does not necessarily indicate nutritional content or quality. The nutritional profiles of brown and white eggs are comparable in terms of protein, vitamins, and minerals.

When the egg passes through the hen’s oviduct, pigment is applied to the shell’s surface, giving the eggshell its brown hue. Genetics and the hen’s nutrition are two examples of variables that might affect how dark the brown color is.

Brown and white eggs usually don’t taste that much different from one another in terms of texture or flavour. It is more likely that elements like the hen’s nutrition, living circumstances, and egg freshness will have an impact on the variations in flavour and texture.

Because they are seen to be associated with natural or organic agricultural practices, customers generally choose brown eggs. However, it’s important to remember that both brown and white eggs can be a part of a healthy and balanced diet.
