    I looked this up on Google and several sites say that you can tell what color eggs a hen will lay by looking at their earlobes… I didn’t even know chickens had earlobes lol

      It’s not consistently true, Leghorns have yellow colored ears and lay white eggs, but yes, MOST eggs can be differentiated by their “lobes”.

    ♫ When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs, every morning to help me get large. Now that I’m grown I eat five dozen eggs, so I’m roughly the size of a barge! ♫

      Just imagine sitting down and eating five fucking dozen eggs to start your day. Gaston is insane.

    This feels more like mildly infuriating since the color gradient is just slightly off

      The egg shell doesn’t really change color. I’ve had rotten eggs that had white shells. The hen layer determines the color of the egg.

        My mistake, what i’ve seen is actually myna’s egg, which is blue.

        Which is a TIL as well.

    Is there a way to tell what eggs might have deep orange yolks? I find they taste (and look!) much better. Most eggs from the store over the last year have been very pale yellow yolks.
