Q :Why are the eggs from Meadowwood different colors?
A: Different breeds of chickens lay different color eggs. Some lay brown eggs, some green, some blue and some white. As different chickens breed, the color of the eggs of the offspring will sometimes reflect the parents. We have seen olive green eggs from hens whose parents' breeds laid brown eggs and bright green eggs. Here at Meadowwood, we have multiple chicken breeds, so you will probably find a "surprise" egg in almost every dozen you buy.
