Why waste money on white eggs when you already have eggs?

Unless they are commercial egg farm eggs, white eggs are just as good as brown eggs.
Egg contents are what the bird is fed. Shell color is the breed.

Oh @KikisGirls you started me thinking on quail (and ducks) so next year after my turkey experiment I might try one or both . Now can someone remind me how the hell to dye easter eggs I have not done it since I was like 8

Oh I agree on that I just don't see why people would waste money on buying white eggs to dye is all also want to add over here in the UK they don't sell white eggs like they do in the states all our eggs a light-dark brown lol.

Instructions are on the box of food color. You need food color and vinegar.
