Yesterday, I visited my best friend’s family farm and came home with three dozen rainbow colored eggs, since they have more than they know what to do with. Her mom keeps Easter Egg chickens, and they lay eggs of every color under the sun: white, brown, yellow, pink, even blue and green- all equally delicious. Hands down, farm fresh eggs kick the pants off supermarket eggs any day (they also keep longer!). If you are interested in keeping your own chickens, be sure to check out what breeds create which colors before buying them! This post by Fresh Eggs Daily has a complete guide of egg colors along with the explanation of the coloring process:

Although all eggs start out with white shells, the blue or brown dye (or both) applied to the shells of some breeds results in eggs that come in almost all the hues of the rainbow.
