Color of egg yolks?

[sammysam]

I just found some of my eggs with dark orange yolks. Most yolks have been yellow or slightly orange but these are much darker. Are they still edible and what may be the cause of this?

It is just casued by what the chicken ate. No cause for alarm. Every spring we look forward to the nice deeply coloured yolks that they get from foraging for their food.
