What is the main difference between brown eggs and white eggs? 

Difference between eggs

The difference in the colour is based on the differences in the breed of the hen’s. Yes, it’s as simple as that. White eggs come from hens with white feathers and ear lobes and brown eggs come from hens with red feathers and ear lobes. Now, who knew that ear lobe could indicate the colour of a feathered lady’s unfertilized eggs?

Do Brown Eggs Have a Harder Shell than White Eggs?

The shells of both the eggs have the same thickness. If you have ever noticed that an eggshell seems tougher, it’s because of the age of the chicken and not the colour of the egg. Younger chicken tends to lay eggs with harder shells while older chicken lays eggs with thinner shells.

Are brown eggs healthier than white eggs? 

Why are brown eggs more expensive

You might have this question in your mind when you are about to purchase an egg may be white or brown. Well, it depends on the hen’s diet. Eggs from hens fed vegetarian diets had more vitamins and omega-3s than eggs from hens eating conventional diets. There is no significant difference in nutritional value between brown and white eggs. But in general, brown eggs may have slightly more omega-3s than white eggs.

Why are brown eggs more expensive? 

White eggs are much cheaper than brown eggs because of the breed of the hen that lays white eggs is smaller and require less feed. If you choose a brown one, you could be paying more for the same food. Mind it!.

Are white eggs or brown eggs better for the environment? 

Are white eggs or brown eggs better for the environment

There is no environmental impact by the colour of the eggs. Environmental impact is influenced more by housing type meaning how we are keeping the birds i.e. indoor or outdoor on a pasture.

I hope now you must be clear with the difference between both the types of eggs. So, whenever you visit the next time to buy an egg, be sure what you have to get and why.
