So, if you want to find out the absolute truth on which is the healthiest choice – brown or white – check out the video above!

 
White eggs are laid by white-feathered chickens with white or light-colored earlobes while the brown ones are laid by brown-feathered chickens with red earlobes. You would be correct to assume that there are more white eggs in the market than brown ones but that’s because…


… breeding and raising white-feathered chickens is much cheaper. Since they aren’t fed as much as their brown counterparts.

The reason brown eggs cost more is because they come from chickens that have a big appetite! And also because they’re a bit bigger in size. These brown feathered chickens eat more and hence are expensive to keep.A lot of research has been done to identify the difference between brown and white eggs in terms of nutritional value but so far the majority seems to believe that there isn’t any.
