The Difference Between White and Brown Eggs

The Difference Between White and Brown Eggs
Have you ever wondered what the difference is between brown and white-shelled eggs? Brown eggs often cost more at the market or grocery store. The difference is not in the quality, but in the size of the egg. Generally, white-feathered hens with white earlobes lay white eggs, while hens with red earlobes, often brown hens, lay brown eggs. Brown eggs are typically bigger than white eggs, which is why they cost more. You can’t compare the nutritional value of brown and white eggs like you can brown and white bread products. To compare eggs, you need to look at what the hens are fed, rather than the colour of the shell.

1. Brown eggs often cost more than white eggs because they tend to be bigger.
2. Chickens that lay white eggs typically have white feathers and white earlobes.
3. The report mentions brown bread because it is has more nutritional value than white bread. This could be why people associate brown eggs with nutritional value.
