Egg Shell
The color of an eggshell depends upon the breed of hen. Hens with 
white ear lobes lay white eggs. Hens with red ear lobes lay brown 
eggs. Rhode Island Reds, New Hampshires and Plymouth Rock chickens 
lay brown eggs. White Leghorns and Brown Leghorns lay white eggs. 
Egg White
The color of the egg white depends upon the presence of carbon 
dioxide. A fresh egg has a great deal of carbon dioxide, since it 
has not had time to escape, and the white looks very cloudy. 

Egg Yolk
The color of the egg yolk depends on the hen's diet. If she eats 
yellow corn or alfalfa meal, the yolk is medium yellow. If she eats 
barley or wheat, the yolk is a lighter yellow. If she eats white 
corn meal, the yolk is almost colorless. (I wonder what the chickens 
eat that I get my eggs from. They are RED-ORANGE and make my cookie 
dough orange-yellow)

Egg Games
Egg games have their origin in many cultures. Egg hunts have long 
been a tradition around Easter time. An egg toss is a picnic game. 
Egg rolling dates back to the 1600's. Eggs are blown, pushed with 
the nose, or rolled down a hill. Egg tapping is done by tapping one 
egg against another. The egg that survives the longest wins.
