Heh. Wouldn't have put it quite that way, but IME the color of the egg
shell makes no difference to the quality/taste of the eggs. FWIW, I have
one old hen that lays white eggs... I also have 14 younger hens (different
breed) that lay brown eggs... All their eggs taste great - and they all
have the same feathers...

Unfortunately, they haven't come up with a way to email eggs, or you would
be welcome to as many free range eggs as you could (probably) eat - for
nothing ;-)

Is that chip on your shoulder edible?
